This is not how you start VN2VN, as I stated in my first reply, do not do this anymore.

_'echo eth2.10 > /sys/module/libfcoe/parameters__/create_vn2vn'_
Nothing happens, in Wireshark trace I see the following messages:
Probe request
Claim notification
and a lot of beacon messages

This is the legacy way of starting VN2VN, it should work. It worked for me, but I did not try with a VLAN. When I get a chance to get back to this I will try with a VLAN.

_'echo eth2.10 > /sys/module/libfcoe/parameters__/create'_
I have the successful FLOGI , but the client can't connect me (I can't find the PLOGI and PRLI accept, see attached file)

I am unclear if you're just running these command successively or after reboots/rmmod. If you just run them sequentially you're going to initialize data structures with the 'fcoeadm -c eth2.10' and the initiator will be in Fabric mode, so any commands after this won't do anything. You need to make sure you destroy the interface before you try a different style of creating.

I'd suggest that you reboot, i.e. start frest, and then just do 'echo eth2.10 > /sys/module/libfcoe/parameters/create_vn2vn'.

I will take a look at your logs when I get a chance. I'm just replying with this info because I won't have time to look at them today.
