Usage Information
You can congure the transmission of more than one TLV type at a time; for example: advertise dcbx-tlv
ets-conf ets-reco.
You can enable ETS recommend TLVs (ets-reco) only if you enable ETS conguration TLVs (ets-conf). To
disable TLV transmission, use the no form of the command; for example, no advertise dcbx-tlv pfc
ets-reco
.
DCBX requires that you enable LLDP to advertise DCBX TLVs to peers.
Congure DCBX operation at the INTERFACE level on a switch or globally on the switch. To verify the DCBX
conguration on a port, use the show interface dcbx detail command.
dcbx port-role
Congure the DCBX port role the interface uses to exchange DCB information.
Syntax
dcbx port-role {config-source | auto-downstream | auto-upstream | manual}
To remove DCBX port role, use the no dcbx port-role {config-source | auto-downstream |
auto-upstream | manual} command.
Parameters
