any manually configured information. Interfaces not enabled for PFC ignore
received PFC frames.
PFC is configurable on full duplex interfaces only. To enable PFC on a LAG, the
member interfaces must have the same configuration.
When PFC is enabled on an interface, it will be automatically disabled for
IEEE 802.3 flow control. Any flow control frames received on a PFC enabled
interface are ignored. When PFC is disabled on an interface, it defaults to
IEEE 802.3 flow control.
Example
The following example sets port 5 to use PFC auto-negotiation mode.
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#pfc mode auto
Console(config-if)#

pfc priority

Use this command to enable PFC for specified priorities. Use the no form to disable
PFC for specified priorities.
Syntax
[no] pfc priority enable priority-list
priority-list – Priority identifier, specified as a single number, a range of
consecutive numbers separated by a hyphen, or multiple numbers
separated by commas. (Range: 0-7)
Default Setting
Enabled for CoS value 3
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Command Usage
If a priority list has already been created by this command, then any priorities
specified by subsequent commands are added the existing list.
When PFC is enabled, the interface will not pause any CoS priority frames
unless there is at least one pause priority set by this command.
Each priority is configured as drop (PFC disabled) or no-drop (PFC enabled). If a
priority designated as no-drop is congested, that priority is paused. The same
no-drop priorities must be configured across the network in order to ensure
end-to-end lossless behavior. VLAN tagging also needs to be turned on in order
to carry the PFC priority settings through the network.
