LLDP Receive States - DCBX uses LLDP to exchange parameters between two link peers. For
the DCBX protocol to operate correctly, both LLDP Rx and Tx must be enabled. If either Rx or Tx
is disabled, DCBX is disabled.
iSCSI Properties Area
•
State - The iSCSI state. It can be Enabled or Disabled.
•
Active Priority - The current active priority assigned for iSCSI.
•
Sync’d - If yes, the iSCSI priority has been set by the peer. This parameter cannot be set.
•
Error - The state of iSCSI Error feature. The error feature indicates whether an error has
occurred during the configuration exchange with the peer. Error is also set to TRUE when the
Compatible method for the feature fails.
Priority Group Properties Area
•
State - The current Priority Group state. It can be Enabled or Disabled.
•
Sync’d - If yes, the Priority Groups have been set by the peer. This parameter cannot be set.
•
Error - The state of iSCSI Error feature. The error feature indicates whether an error has
occurred during the configuration exchange with the peer. Error is also set to TRUE when the
Compatible method for the feature fails.
Active Groups
•
PG - The Priority Group number. It can be 0 to 7.
•
Priorities - The priorities that are assigned to each Priority Group. It is represented in comma
separated format.
•
Bandwidth % - The percentage of available link bandwidth allocated to a particular Priority
Group.
CEE Tab Buttons
•
Configure CEE - Click to configure CEE parameters. See the instructions below.
To configure CEE for iSCSI adapter ports:
1.
From the discovery-tree, select the iSCSI adapter port whose CEE properties you want to
configure.
2.
Select the CEE tab.
3.
Click Configure CEE. The Configure CEE dialog box appears.
Note: While there are eight CEE priority groups in which the CEE priorities can be
assigned, only two of those groups should be assigned priorities and bandwidths. The
iSCSI priority is assigned to one priority group and the other seven (NIC) priorities
should be assigned to one and only one other priority group. If you are configuring
priority groups on a DCBX enabled switch, in order to work properly with the adapter
port, you should only configure two priority groups in the same way.
