Hello ONadh,

Thank you for patiently waiting. First, let me comment on the link that you provided. It is from a 3rd party website and Intel does not have control on the information that they are posting.

However, as for Intel and your inquiry if Intel® Ethernet Controller X710 supports FCoE. Upon further checking beyond the first link that I provided that X710 does not support FCoE, I have some documents below that says X710 does not support FCoE.

Please open the link below and go to page 4.

Please open the link below and go to page 14.
