PFC and ETS Configuration Examples
This section contains examples of how to configure and apply DCB policies on an interface.
Using PFC to Manage Converged
Ethernet Traffic
To use PFC for managing converged Ethernet traffic, use the following command:
dcb-map stack-unit all dcb-map-name
Operations on Untagged Packets
The below is example for enabling PFC for priority 2 for tagged packets. Priority (Packet Dot1p) 2 will be
mapped to PG6 on PRIO2PG setting. All other Priorities for which PFC is not enabled are mapped to default
PG – PG7.
Classification rules on ingress (Ingress FP CAM region) matches incoming packet-dot1p and assigns an
internal priority (to select queue as per Table 1 and Table 2).
The internal Priority assigned for the packet by Ingress FP is used by the memory management unit (MMU) to
assign the packet to right queue by indexing the internal-priority to queue map table (TABLE 1) in hardware.
PRIO2COS setting for honoring the PFC protocol packets from the Peer switches is as per above Packet-
Dot1p->queue table (Table 2).
The packets that come in with packet-dot1p 2 alone will be assigned to PG6 on ingress.
