used only if the switch does not provide them. With DCBX disabled, the configured values are
used. Changes to the DCBX state require a reboot of the host.
• DCBX Mode - The DCBX mode can be set to CEE or CIN. Changes to the DCBX mode require
a reboot of the host.
• Operating Version - The operating version of the DCBX protocol. The system adjusts as needed
to operate at the highest version supported by both link partners. This setting cannot be
changed.
Note: An error message is displayed if you try to configure more priority groups than the
adapter supports. The “Max Configurable PGs” field shows the number of priority
groups supported by the adapter.
