Converged network DCB example
A converged data center network carries multiple trac types (SAN, server, and LAN) that are sensitive to dierent aspects of data
transmission. For example, storage trac is sensitive to packet loss, while server trac is latency-sensitive. In a single converged link, all
trac types coexist without imposing serious restrictions on others' performance. DCB allows iSCSI and FCoE SAN trac to co-exist with
server and LAN trac on the same network. DCB features reduce or avoid dropped frames, retransmission, and network congestion.
DCB provides lossless transmission of FCoE and iSCSI storage trac using:
• Separate trac classes for the dierent service needs of network applications.
• PFC ow control to pause data transmission and avoid dropping packets during congestion.
• ETS bandwidth allocation to guarantee a percentage of shared bandwidth to bursty trac, while allowing each trac class to exceed
its allocated bandwidth if another trac class is not using its share.
• DCBX discovery of peers, including parameter exchange (PFC, ETS, and other DCB settings), mismatch detection, and remote
conguration of DCB parameters.
• iSCSI application protocol TLV information in DCBX advertisements to communicate iSCSI support to peer ports
This example shows how to congure a sample DCB converged network in which:
• DCBx is enabled globally to ensure the exchange of DCBx, PFC, ETS, and ISCSI congurations between DCBx-enabled devices.
• PFC is congured to ensure loseless trac for dot1p priority 4, 5, 6, and 7 trac.
• ETS allocates 30% bandwidth for dot1p priority 0, 1, 2, and 3 trac and 70% bandwidth for priority 4, 5, 6, and 7 trac.
• iSCSI is congured to use dot1p priority 6 for iSCSI trac, and advertise priority 6 in iSCSI application TLVs.
• The default class-trust class map honors dot1p priorities in ingress ows and applies a 1-to-1 dot1p-to-qos-group and a 1-to-1 qos-
group-to-queue mapping. In OS10, qos-group represents a trac class used only for internal processing.
