SAN_A_dcb_map1 Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to
apply a DCB map to more than one port.
You cannot apply a DCB map on an interface
that has been already configured for PFC using
thepfc priority command or which is
already configured for lossless queues (pfc
no-drop queues
command).
Configuring PFC without a DCB Map
In a network topology that uses the default ETS bandwidth allocation (assigns equal bandwidth to each
priority), you can also enable PFC for specific dot1p-priorities on individual interfaces without using a
DCB map. This type of DCB configuration is useful on interfaces that require PFC for lossless traffic, but
do not transmit converged Ethernet traffic.
Step Task Command Command Mode
1 Enter interface configuration mode on an
Ethernet port.

CONFIGURATION
2 Enable PFC on specified priorities. Range:
0-7. Default: None.
Maximum number of lossless queues
supported on an Ethernet port: 2.
Separate priority values with a comma.
Specify a priority range with a dash, for
example: pfc priority 3,5-7
1. You cannot configure PFC using the
pfc priority command on an
interface on which a DCB map has been
applied or which is already configured
for lossless queues (pfc no-drop

command).

INTERFACE
Configuring Lossless Queues
DCB also supports the manual configuration of lossless queues on an interface after you disable PFC
mode in a DCB map and apply the map on the interface. The configuration of no-drop queues provides
flexibility for ports on which PFC is not needed, but lossless traffic should egress from the interface.
Lossless traffic egresses out the no-drop queues. Ingress 802.1p traffic from PFC-enabled peers is
automatically mapped to the no-drop egress queues.
