Parameters
• buffer-size kilobytes — Enter the reserved (guaranteed) ingress-buer size in kilobytes for PFC 
dot1p trac (0 to 7787).
• pause-threshold kilobytes — Enter the threshold used to send pause frames in kilobytes to a 
transmitting device (0 to 7787).
•
resume-threshold kilobytes — Enter the threshold used to request a transmitting device in kilobytes 
to resume sending trac (0 to 7787).
Defaults
The default ingress-buer size reserved for PFC trac classes, and the pause and resume thresholds vary 
according to the interface type. The default egress buer reserved for PFC trac classes is 0 on all interface 
types.

Command Mode POLICY-CLASS NETWORK-QOS
Usage Information Use the pause command without optional parameters to apply the default ingress-buer size, and pause (XON) 
and resume (XOFF) thresholds. Default values for the buffer-size, pause-threshold, and resume-
threshold
 parameters vary across interface types and port speeds. The default values are based on the default 
MTU size of 9216 bytes.
Example
OS10(config)# policy-map type network-qos pp1
OS10(conf-pmap-network-qos)# class cc1
OS10(conf-pmap-c-nqos)# pause buffer-size 30 pause-threshold 20 resume-
threshold 10
Supported Releases 10.3.0E or later
pfc-cos
Congures the matching dot1p values used to send PFC pause frames.
Syntax
pfc-cos dot1p-priority
Parameters dot1p-priority — Enter a single dot1p priority value for a PFC trac class (1 to 7), a hyphen-separated 
range, or multiple dot1p values separated by commas.
Default Not congured
Command Mode POLICY-CLASS NETWORK-QOS
Usage Information When you enter PFC-enabled dot1p priorities with pfc-cos, the dot1p values must be the same as the match 
qos-group (trac class) numbers in the network-qos class map used to dene the PFC trac class (see 
Congure PFC Example). A qos-group number is used only internally to classify ingress trac classes. See PFC 
conguration notes for the default dot1p-priority-to-trac-class mapping and how to congure a non-default 
mapping. A PFC trac class requires a 1-to-1 mapping — only one dot1p value is mapped to a qos-group 
number.
