BUFFER PROFILE
Usage
Information
If you attempt to apply a buffer profile to a non-existent port-pipe, FTOS displays the following
message. However, the configuration still appears in the running-config.
%DIFFSERV-2-DSA_BUFF_CARVING_INVALID_PORT_SET: Invalid FP port-set 2 for linecard 2.
Valid range of port-set is <0-1>
Usage
Information
When you remove a buffer-profile using the command no buffer-profile [fp | csf] from
CONFIGURATION mode, the buffer-profile name still appears in the output of show buffer-profile
[detail | summary]. After a line card reset, the buffer profile correctly returns to the default values,
but the profile name remains. Remove it from the show buffer-profile [detail | summary] command
output by entering no buffer [fp-uplink | csf] linecard port-set buffer-policy from
CONFIGURATION mode and no buffer-policy from INTERFACE mode.
