Configuring the Queue Limit at the Port Level
You can overwrite the global level configuration by configuring the queue limit at the port level.
You can also disable the queue limit at the port level.
Procedure
Purpose
Command or Action
Enters global configuration mode.
configure terminal
Example:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)#
Step 1
Enters interface configuration mode.
interface ethernet chassis_id / slot/port
Step 2
Example:
switch(config)# interface ethernet
100/1/1
If this is a 10G breakout port, the
slot
/
port
syntax is
QSFP-module
/
port
.
Note
Controls the egress (tx) or ingress (rx) queue tail
drop threshold level on a FEX.
hardware N2248TP-E queue-limit
queue-limit tx|rx
Step 3
Example:
switch(config-if)# hardware N2248TP-E
queue-limit 83000 tx
•
The default queue limit for tx (egress) is 4
MB.
•
The default queue limit for rx (ingress) is 1
MB.
This example shows how to configure the queue limit.
switch#
configure terminal
switch(config)#
interface ethernet 100/1/1
switch(config-if)#
hardware N2248TP-E queue-limit 83000 tx
switch(config-if)#
Configuring the Uplink Distance
The Cisco Nexus N2248TP-E FEX supports a pause no-drop class up to a distance of 3000 meters between
the FEX and the switch.
The default cable length between the FEX and the switch is 300 meters.
When the pause no-drop class is not configured, the uplink distance configuration has no effect.
