Configuring Priority Flow Control; Configuring Ieee 802.3X Link-Level Flow Control - Cisco N5010P-N2K-BE Software Configuration Manual

Configuring FCoE
S e n d f e e d b a c k t o n x 5 0 0 0 - d o c f e e d b a c k @ c i s c o . c o m
To disable the FCoE capability, perform this task:
Command
switch(config-if)# no fcoe mode [auto |
on]
This example shows how to disable FCoE for an Ethernet interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# no fcoe mode auto
The fcoe command can only be applied to a physical Ethernet interface.

Configuring Priority Flow Control

By default, the Ethernet interfaces negotiate PFC capability with the adapter. You can override the
negotiation result by force-enabling the PFC capability.
To force-enable the PFC capability, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# interface type slot/port
Step 3
switch(config-if)# priority-flow-control
mode {auto | on }
The following example shows how to force-enable PFC on an interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/2
switch(config-if)# priority-flow-control mode on
To disable PFC capability for this interface, perform this task:
Command
switch(config-if)# no priority-flow-control
mode [auto | on ]

Configuring IEEE 802.3x Link-Level Flow Control

By default, link-level flow control capability on Ethernet interfaces is disabled. Only enable the
link-level flow control capability if PFC is disabled on the interface.
To configure link-level flow control, see the
