CEE configuration
This switch has eight 8 Gbps FC ports and 24 10 Gbps Ethernet CEE ports. You must configure CEE
interfaces and ports differently than you configure FC ports, in order to effectively use the
converged network features.
For example, Priority-based flow control (PFC) and Enhanced transmission selection (ETS) are the
two QoS policy enhancements you must configure to create a lossless Ethernet. You then use DCBX
protocol on CEE-enabled devices to exchange configuration information.
Switch, CEE port, and link aggregation group (LAG) policies are discussed later in this chapter.
Opening the CEE Configuration dialog box
To access the CEE Configuration dialog box, complete the following steps.
1. Select Configure > CEE Switch > CEE from the menu bar.
NOTE
You can also launch the CEE Configuration dialog box from the 8 Gbps 16-FC-ports, 10 GbE
8-Ethernet Port switch by right-clicking the switch in the product device tree or topology map
and selecting Configuration > CEE.
The CEE Configuration dialog box displays, showing the status of all CEE-related hardware and
functions.
