Dell Networking OS Behavior: Create a DCB output policy to associate a priority group with an ETS
output policy with scheduling and bandwidth configuration. You can apply a DCB output policy on
multiple egress ports.
The ETS configuration associated with 802.1p priority traffic in a DCB output policy is used in DCBx
negotiation with ETS peers.
When you apply an ETS output policy to an interface, ETS-configured scheduling and bandwidth
allocation take precedence over any configured settings in the QoS output policies.
To remove an ETS output policy from an interface, use the no dcb-policy output policy-name
command. DCB and ETS are both disabled by default. When DCB is enabled, ETS is enabled on all
interfaces that have the default ETS configuration applied.
If you disable ETS in an output policy applied to an interface (the no ets mode on command), any
previously configured QoS settings at the interface or global level take effect. If QoS settings are
configured at the interface or global level and in an output policy map (the service-policy output
command), the QoS configuration in the output policy take precedence.
