You install an ASA AFF A400 system with 32 GB FC SFP+ modules in port 0e and 0f. After creating the SVM and configuring the FCP protocol, the physical port stays offline. Referring to the exhibit which statement is correct?

1. A. The current type of the ports must be configured as an initiator
2. B. The current mode to the ports must be configured as an FC port
3. C. The current mode for the ports must be set as an NVMe/FC port
4. D. The admin status is manually set to down
