Purpose
Command or Action
•
resume-threshold
—
Specifies the buffer limit at which
the port resumes the peer.
•
xon-size
—
Buffer limit at which to resume, in bytes. Valid
values are 0 to 490880.
On a Cisco Nexus 5020 switch, you can
configure a maximum resume-threshold value
of 38400 bytes.
On a Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device, you can
configure a maximum resume-threshold value
of 83520 bytes.
Note
(Optional)
Removes the buffer threshold settings for pause and resume
for 3000m lossless Ethernet.

Configuring the Buffer Threshold for the Cisco Nexus 2148T Fabric Extender
In the Fabric Extender configuration mode, you can configure the buffer threshold for the Cisco Nexus 2148T
Fabric Extender. The buffer threshold sets the consumption level of input buffers before an indication is sent
to the egress queue to start observing the tail drop threshold. If the buffer usage is lower than the configured
buffer threshold, the tail drop threshold is ignored.
