To determine the transmission bandwidth percentage:
1. Under DCBX TLV Information, expand the Traffic Class folder and open
the Traffic class <x> folder, where <x> is the traffic class.
2. Locate and take note of the 802.1p Priority value.
3. Expand the Transmission Priority folder and locate the Traffic class with
priority <y> entry, where <y> is the priority value found in the Step 2. Take
note of the entry’s value as the transmission priority.
4. Expand the Transmission Bandwidth folder and locate the Bandwidth
in % for traffic class <z> entry (at index <z>), where <z> is the
transmission priority value found in Step 3.
The value for that entry is the bandwidth percentage for Traffic class <x>.
