Why each option
To connect a single-homed storage array using FCoE to port ethernet1/10 on a Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switch, the port must be explicitly configured for FCoE operation.
This option likely does not provide the complete or correct FCoE-specific commands required to configure an Ethernet interface for FCoE communication on an MDS switch.

This option likely does not provide the complete or correct FCoE-specific commands required to configure an Ethernet interface for FCoE communication on an MDS switch.
The configuration must include commands to enable FCoE mode on the interface, typically with `switchport mode fcoe`, and then specifically enable the FCoE protocol on the port, often using a command like `fcoe enable`, to allow the Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switch to communicate with the storage array over FCoE.
