If generator room has louvers on some wall portions, how to maintain/meet 2-hour fire rated wall rating requirement at louver portion?

Install a 2-hour rated fire damper in the wall and install the louver inboard of the fire damper.
 
That's the way that we do it. Room is typically built with concrete block and fire rated dampers. We've had large walls that were almost entirely intake dampers.
