Administrator Guide

Using the priority-pgid command, you assign each 802.1p priority to one priority group. A priority group
consists of 802.1p priority values that are grouped together for similar bandwidth allocation and scheduling, and
that share latency and loss requirements. All 802.1p priorities mapped to the same queue must be in the same
priority group. For example, the priority-pgid 0 0 0 1 2 4 4 4 command creates the following groups
of 802.1p priority traffic:
• Priority group 0 contains traffic with dot1p priorities 0, 1, and 2.
• Priority group 1 contains traffic with dot1p priority 3.
• Priority group 2 contains traffic with dot1p priority 4.
• Priority group 4 contains traffic with dot1p priority 5, 6, and 7.
To remove a priority-pgid configuration from a DCB map, enter the no priority-pgid command.
For PFC enabled priorities, it is recommended to map single priority per Priority group.
priority-group bandwidth pfc
Configure the ETS bandwidth allocation and PFC mode used to manage port traffic in an 802.1p priority group.
Syntax
priority-group group-num {bandwidth percentage| strict-priority} [[committed |
peak ] | [peak | committed] {<0-10000>} [<0-10000>]] pfc {on | off}
Parameters
priority-group
group-num
Enter the keyword priority-group followed by the number of an 802.1p priority
group. Use the priority-pgid command to create the priority groups in a DCB map.
bandwidth
percentage
Enter the keyword bandwidth followed by a bandwidth percentage allocated to the
priority group. The range of valid values is 1 to 100. The sum of all allocated bandwidth
percentages in priority groups in a DCB map must be 100%.
strict-priority Configure the priority-group traffic to be handled with strict priority scheduling. Strict-
priority traffic is serviced first, before bandwidth allocated to other priority groups is made
available.
committed Enter the keyword committed then a number to specify the committed rate in Mbps. The
range is from 0 to 40000.
peak Enter the keyword peak then a number to specify the peak rate in Mbps. The range is
from 0 to 40000.
pfc {on | off} Configure whether priority-based flow control is enabled (on) or disabled (off) for port
traffic in the priority group.
Defaults None
