Configuring System Classes
The following example enables link-level flow control frames on an interface:
switch#
configure terminal
switch(config)#
interface ethernet 1/2
switch(config-if)#
flowcontrol receive on transmit on
To disable link-level flow control, perform this task:
Configuring System Classes
This section describes how to configure system classes on the switch. The steps to configure a system
class are described in the following topics:
•
Configuring Class Maps, page 1-9
•
Configuring Policy Maps, page 1-10
•
Creating the System Service Policy, page 1-11
•
System Class Example, page 1-12

Verifying Jumbo MTU, page 1-12
Configuring Class Maps
The
class-map
command creates a named object that represents a class of traffic. In the class map, you
specify a set of match criteria for classifying the packets. For system classes, the only match criteria
supported is
match cos
.
If a system class is configured with no-drop function, the
match cos
command serves an additional
purpose. The switch sends the CoS value to the adapter, so that the adapter will apply PFC Pause for this
CoS value.
The FCoE system class has a default CoS value of 3. You can add a
match cos
configuration to the FCoE
system class to set a different CoS value. PFC Pause will be applied to traffic that matches the new value.
