The default DCB buffer configuration supports 64 PFC lossless queues of 10G interface speed on each of the XPEs. The
following table shows the PFC buffer required for one loss less queue on various supported interface speeds:

DCB Buffer value after PFC configuration:
When PFC is configured on a particular port, two XPEs corresponding to the ingress pipe to which the port belongs is updated
with the buffer values. If the port is on the ingress pipe 0 or 3, both the XPE A are updated. Where as, if the port is on ingress
pipe 1 or 2, then both the XPE B are updated.
The following example shows DCB buffer values after one PFC lossless queue configured on a port that belongs to ingress pipe
0 [10G speed]:
