NetApp support for iSCSI over DCB

Hi,

Does someone know if NetApp will eventually support iSCSI over DCB?

This is an article on this http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2005240

Thanks,

Réal Waite

iSCSI data Center bridging (DCB) can assign priority and allocate bandwidth to network traffic based on the traffic protocol. Beginning in Data ONTAP 8.2.1, DCB is supported in iSCSI.

iSCSI DCB support is only available on the QLogic 8300 series dual port 10GbE CNA adapter.
