Dot1p Priority : 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Queue : 1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7
3 Dot1p->Queue Mapping Conguration is retained at the default value.
4 Interface Congurations on server connected ports.
a Enable DCB globally.
DellEMC(conf)#dcb enable
b Apply PFC Priority conguration. Congure priorities on which PFC is enabled.
Using PFC to Manage Converged Ethernet Trac
To use PFC for managing converged Ethernet trac, use the following command:
dcb-map stack-unit all dcb-map-name
Generation of PFC for a Priority for Untagged Packets
In order to generate PFC for a particular priority for untagged packets, and conguring PFC for that priority, you should nd the queue
number associated with priority from TABLE 1 and Associate a DCB map to forward the matched DSCP packet to that queue. PFC frames
gets generated with PFC priority associated with the queue when the queue gets congested.
Congure Enhanced Transmission Selection
ETS provides a way to optimize bandwidth allocation to outbound 802.1p classes of converged Ethernet trac.
Dierent trac types have dierent service needs. Using ETS, you can create groups within an 802.1p priority class to congure dierent
treatment for trac with dierent bandwidth, latency, and best-eort needs.
For example, storage trac is sensitive to frame loss; interprocess communication (IPC) trac is latency-sensitive. ETS allows dierent
trac types to coexist without interruption in the same converged link by:
• Allocating a guaranteed share of bandwidth to each priority group.
• Allowing each group to exceed its minimum guaranteed bandwidth if another group is not fully using its allotted bandwidth.
Creating an ETS Priority Group
An ETS priority group species the range of 802.1p priority trac to which a QoS output policy with ETS settings is applied on an egress
interface. Before conguring ETS, use the cam-acl l2acl 2 ipv4acl 0 ipv6acl 0 ipv4qos 2 l2qos 0 l2pt 0
ipmacacl 0 vman-qos 0 fcoeacl 2 etsacl 1 iscsi 2 command to allocate the appropriate CAM region for ETS.
