[Pkg-fcoe-general] Configuring FCoE parameters at boot

I have a server with a pair of Intel 82599ES NICs which is configured as an LIO FCoE software target. This works well but it has a minor irritation that every time the system boots I have to run 

	echo <nic>.11 > /sys/module/libfcoe/parameters/create

On each of the NICs to make the FCoE adapters come live.

This feels like it should be something that could be configured automatically but when I tried adding it as a post-up on the VLAN interface in /etc/networtk/interfaces the system failed to bring up the network at all due to a circular dependency.

Are there any recommendations about how to achieve this?

Thanks,

	Mark.
