The correct answer is D. Enable LLDP to be received. The LLDP output shows DCBX is on but LLDP receive is disabled (tx/rx/dcbx: Y/N/Y), so the FCoE-capable peer's DCBX advertisements aren't being learned.

Explanation

The LLDP output shows DCBX is on but LLDP receive is disabled (tx/rx/dcbx: Y/N/Y), so the FCoE-capable peer's DCBX advertisements aren't being learned. Enabling LLDP receive on that Ethernet interface allows the switch to negotiate DCBX (PFC/ETS), restoring FCoE connectivity to the storage device.
