￿Application Protocol

DCBX exchanges information regarding FCoE and FIP snooping, including the 802.1p priority value used for FCoE traffic. The advertise flag is set or reset using the following command:

RS G8124(config)# [no] cee port <port alias or number> dcbx app_proto advertise

The willing flag is set or reset using the following command:

RS G8124(config)# [no] cee port <port alias or number> dcbx app_proto willing

￿PFC

DCBX exchanges information regarding whether PFC is enabled or disabled on the port. The advertise flag is set or reset using the following command:

RS G8124(config)# [no] cee port <port alias or number> dcbx pfc advertise

The willing flag is set or reset using the following command:

RS G8124(config)# [no] cee port <port alias or number> dcbx pfc willing

￿ETS

DCBX exchanges information regarding ETS priority groups, including their 802.1p priority members and bandwidth allocation percentages. The advertise flag is set or reset using the following command:

RS G8124(config)# [no] cee port <port alias or number> dcbx ets advertise

The willing flag is set or reset using the following command:
