FCoE and FC Switch Options

Hello all,

We've got a pending issue that we've got with our Cisco Nexus 5548UP's having gone end of life, we've recently got 2 from Cisco refurbished, but we've only just found out they can't sell us an FC license for it, as the license is end of life too.

We're putting together a BoM for 8 x Nexus 9300's but in the meantime the FC eval license on the Nexus 5k's is due to run out shortly, so I'm after some advice for bridging the gap, so to speak.

What options do we have? Can the 90 day eval license be reset? Is there a cheap-ish (new or used) switch that'll do FCoE and FC I can use whilst the new n9k's arrive?

Best, CC
