dcb enable
2  Congure the shared PFC buer size and the total buer size. A maximum of 4 lossless queues are supported.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb pfc-shared-buffer-size value 
dcb pfc-total-buffer-size value
The buer size range is from 0 to 3399. Default is 3088.
3  Congure the number of PFC queues.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb enable pfc-queues pfc-queues
The number of ports supported based on lossless queues congured depends on the buer. The default number of PFC queues in the 
system is one.
For each priority, you can specify the shared buer threshold limit, the ingress buer size, buer limit for pausing the acceptance of 
packets, and the buer oset limit for resuming the acceptance of received packets.
4  Congure the prole name for the DCB buer threshold
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb-buffer-threshold dcb-buffer-threshold

DCB-BUFFER-THRESHOLD mode
priority 0 buffer-size 52 pause-threshold 16 resume-offset 10 shared-threshold-weight 7 
6  Assign the DCB policy to the DCB buer threshold prole.
CONFIGURATION mode
7  Assign the DCB policy to the DCB buer threshold prole on interfaces. This setting takes precedence over the default buer-
threshold setting.
INTERFACE mode (conf-if-te)
dcb-policy buffer-threshold buffer-threshold
Sample DCB Conguration
The following shows examples of using PFC and ETS to manage your data center trac.
In the following example:
• Incoming SAN trac is congured for priority-based ow control.
• Outbound LAN, IPC, and SAN trac is mapped into three ETS priority groups and congured for enhanced trac selection (bandwidth 
allocation and scheduling).
• One lossless queue is used.
