or propagate internal or external configurations. Unlike other user-configured ports, the configuration of DCBx
ports in Manual mode is saved in the running configuration.
On a DCBx port in a manual role, all PFC, application priority, ETS recommend, and ETS configuration TLVs are
enabled.
When making a configuration change to a DCBx port in a Manual role, Dell Networking recommends shutting down
the interface using the
shutdown
command, change the configuration, then re-activate the interface using the
no shutdown
command.
The default for the DCBx port role is manual .
NOTE: On a DCBx port, application priority TLV advertisements are handled as follows:
• The application priority TLV is transmitted only if the priorities in the advertisement match the configured PFC priorities on the
port.
• On auto-upstream and auto-downstream ports:
•
If a configuration source is elected, the ports send an application priority TLV based on the application priority TLV received on
the configuration-source port. When an application priority TLV is received on the configuration-source port, the auto-upstream
and auto-downstream ports use the internally propagated PFC priorities to match against the received application priority.
Otherwise, these ports use their locally configured PFC priorities in application priority TLVs.
• If no configuration source is configured, auto-upstream and auto-downstream ports check to see that the locally configured
PFC priorities match the priorities in a received application priority TLV.
• On manual ports, an application priority TLV is advertised only if the priorities in the TLV match the PFC priorities configured on the
port.
DCB Configuration Exchange
The DCBx protocol supports the exchange and propagation of configuration information for the enhanced transmission selection (ETS) and
priority-based flow control (PFC) DCB features.
DCBx uses the following methods to exchange DCB configuration parameters:
Asymmetric DCB parameters are exchanged between a DCBx-enabled port and a peer port without requiring that a peer port
and the local port use the same configured values for the configurations to be compatible. For example, ETS uses
an asymmetric exchange of parameters between DCBx peers.
Symmetric DCB parameters are exchanged between a DCBx-enabled port and a peer port but requires that each configured
parameter value be the same for the configurations in order to be compatible. For example, PFC uses an
symmetric exchange of parameters between DCBx peers.
Configuration Source Election
When an auto-upstream or auto-downstream port receives a DCB configuration from a peer, the port first checks to see if there is an
active configuration source on the switch.
• If a configuration source already exists, the received peer configuration is checked against the local port configuration. If the received
configuration is compatible, the DCBx marks the port as DCBx-enabled. If the configuration received from the peer is not compatible, a
warning message is logged and the DCBx frame error counter is incremented. Although DCBx is operationally disabled, the port keeps
the peer link up and continues to exchange DCBx packets. If a compatible peer configuration is later received, DCBx is enabled on the
port.
• If there is no configuration source, a port may elect itself as the configuration source. A port may become the configuration source if
the following conditions exist:
•
No other port is the configuration source.
• The port role is auto-upstream.
