• If the port capability is 4 GB, type a number between 10 and 125, inclusive.
• If the port capability is 2 GB, type a number between 10 and 250, inclusive.
• If the port capability is 1 GB, type a number between 10 and 500, inclusive.
• For the Brocade 6510, Brocade 6520, Brocade DCX 8510-8 and Brocade DCX 8510-4,
the buffer credits are 10 through X; where X is proportional to the available buffers.
This value is the upper limit for calculating buffer availability for other ports in the same
port group. If the actual distance is more than the desired distance, the port operates in
buffer-limited mode.
