Setup Guide

Field Description
Willing Status is
enabled
Local is enabled DCBX operational status (enabled or disabled) with a list of the configured PFC
priorities.
Operational
status (local
port)
Port state for current operational PFC configuration:
● Init: Local PFC configuration parameters were exchanged with the peer.
● Recommend: Remote PFC configuration parameters were received from the
peer.
● Internally propagated: PFC configuration parameters were received
from the configuration source.
PFC DCBX Oper
status
Operational status for the exchange of the PFC configuration on the local port:
match (up) or mismatch (down).
State Machine
Type
Type of state machine used for DCBX exchanges of the PFC parameters: Feature
— for legacy DCBX versions; Symmetric — for an IEEE version.
TLV Tx Status Status of the PFC TLV advertisements: enabled or disabled.
