Usage Information
The default number of 802.1p priorities that you can enable for PFC is –2. The maximum number of 802.1p
priorities that you can enable for PFC is –4. Queues to which PFC priority trac is mapped are lossless by default.
Trac may be interrupted due to an interface ap (going down and coming up) when you recongure the lossless
queues for no-drop priorities.
The default number of lossless queues supported on the switch is two. The maximum number of lossless queues
supported on the system is 4.
A PFC peer must support the congured priority trac (as DCBX detects) to apply PFC.
