HP Intelligent Management Center v7.0 VAN Fabric Manager Administrator Guide

Command lines in different colors indicate different consistency:
Black command lines—Configurations on the CEE interface and in VFM are the same.
Red command lines—Configurations on the CEE interface and in VFM are different.
Blue command lines—Configuration does not exist either on the CEE interface or in VFM.
3. View the different command line.
Click Previous Diff or Next Diff. The switched command line is highlighted in yellow. If there
are no differences in all the command lines for the CEE interface and VFM, the two buttons
are unavailable.
4. Click Close to return to the CEE interface list.
Configuring DCBX parameters in VFM for a single CEE interface
After configuring DCBX parameters for a CEE interface, the operator can deploy them to the CEE
interface.
To configure DCBX parameters in VFM for a single CEE interface:
1. In the CEE interface list, click the icon for the target CEE interface. The DCBX parameters
modify page appears.
2. Click the Advanced Configuration link to configure the following parameters:
Guaranteed Bandwidth for ETS—Select a percentage of the interface bandwidth allocated
to FCoE and FIP frames. The greater the percentage value, the greater scheduling weight
the WRR queue has.
ACL Identifier—Enter the ACL numbers for matching FCoE and FIP frames. The ACL rules
to match FCoE and FIP frames are generated automatically by VFM.
Classifier Name—Enter the name of the classifier to which FCoE and FIP frames belong.
Behavior Name—Enter the name of the behavior for resetting the 802.1p priority of FCoE
and FIP frames. The actions for resetting the 802.1p priority are generated automatically
by VFM.
QoS Policy Name—Enter the name of the QoS policy for associating the class with the
behavior.
WRR Queuing Type—Select the WRR queuing type from list. Options include byte-countand
and weight. The byte-count option means allocating bandwidth to queues in terms of
bytes. The weight option means allocating bandwidth to queues based on weights.
3. Click OK.
Deploying DCBX parameters to CEE interfaces
Perform this task to deploy DCBX parameters to CEE interfaces on an FCoE switch.
If the operator has configured DCBX parameters separately for a CEE interface, the configured
DCBX parameters are deployed.
If the operator has not configured DCBX parameters separately for a CEE interface, the default
interface DCBX parameters are deployed.
To deploy DCBX parameters to CEE interfaces:
1. In the CEE interface list, select one or more CEE interfaces, and click Configure DCBX.
2. Select Deploy DCBX from the menu.
VFM automatically synchronizes the FCoE switch while deploying DCBX parameters to CEE
interfaces.
