LLDP configuration procedures

Configuring FCoE priority bits
The FCoE priority bit setting is a bitmap setting where each bit position stands for a priority. When
you set a bit for a particular priority, that priority setting is applied to the FCoE traffic (that is, the
incoming FCoE traffic will have that priority).
NOTE
FCoE traffic is only supported on the priority level that also has flow control enabled. This means that
the final advertised FCoE priority consists of the configured FCoE priority setting and the per-priority
flow control setting.
To configure the FCoE priority bits, perform the following steps from the global LLDP configuration
mode:
Configuring LLDP profiles
NOTE
For detailed usage descriptions of the LLDP profile command options in this section, see the
previous sections.
You can configure up to 64 profiles on a switch. Using the no profile NAME command deletes the
entire profile.
To configure LLDP profiles, perform the following steps from the global LLDP configuration mode:
Step Task Command
1. Configure the FCoE priority bits. The value is
specified as 0x0-0xff.
switch(conf-lldp)#fcoe-priority-bits VALUE
2. Display the LLDP configuration. switch(conf-lldp)#do show lldp [interface
| neighbors | statistics]
Step Task Command
1. Configure the profile name. switch(conf-lldp)#profile NAME
2. Configure the optional LLDP
TLVs to be advertised. By
default the global values are
used.
switch(conf-lldp-profile-example)#advertise
optional-tlv {port-description | system-name |
system-capabilities | system-description |
management-address}
3. Configure the LLDP
DCBX-related TLVs to be
advertised. By default the
global values are used.
switch(conf-lldp-profile-example)#advertise
{dcbx-fcoe-app-tlv | dcbx-fcoe-logical-link-tlv |
dcbx-tlv | dot1-tlv | dot3-tlv}
4. Specify a description for the
profile.
switch(conf-lldp-profile-example)#description LINE
5. Enable the receiving of LLDP
packets. By default the global
values are used.
switch(conf-lldp-profile-example)#mode rx
Enable the transmitting of LLDP
packets. By default the global
values are used.
switch(conf-lldp-profile-example)#mode tx
