Configuring the Dynamic Buffer Method
Priority-based flow control using dynamic buffer spaces is supported on the switch.
To configure the dynamic buffer capability, perform the following steps:
1.
Enable the DCB application. By default, DCB is enabled and link-level flow control is disabled on all interfaces.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb enable
2.
Configure the shared PFC buffer size and the total buffer size. A maximum of 4 lossless queues are supported.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb pfc-shared-buffer-size 4000
dcb pfc-total-buffer-size 5000
3.
Configure the number of PFC queues.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb enable pfc-queues
pfc-queues
The number of ports supported based on lossless queues configured depends on the buffer. The default number of PFC queues
in the system is two for S4810 and Z9500, and one for S6000 platforms.
For each priority, you can specify the shared buffer threshold limit, the ingress buffer size, buffer limit for pausing the
acceptance of packets, and the buffer offset limit for resuming the acceptance of received packets.
4.
Configure the profile name for the DCB buffer threshold
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb-buffer-threshold
dcb-buffer-threshold
5.
DCB-BUFFER-THRESHOLD mode
priority 0 buffer-size 52 pause-threshold 16 resume-offset 10 shared-threshold-weight 7
6.
Assign the DCB policy to the DCB buffer threshold profile.
CONFIGURATION mode
Dell(conf)# dcb-policy buffer-threshold stack-unit all stack-ports all
dcb-policy-name
7.
Assign the DCB policy to the DCB buffer threshold profile on interfaces. This setting takes precedence over the default buffer-
threshold setting.
INTERFACE mode (conf-if-te)
dcb-policy buffer-threshold
buffer-threshold
8.
Configuring Global total buffer size on stack ports.
CONFIGURATION mode
dcb pfc-total-buffer-size
buffer-size
stack-unit all port-set {
port-pipe
|all}
Port-set number range is from 0 to 3.
