Figure 26. "Show Interfaces Dcbx Detail - Dell Force10 MXL Deployment Manual

Deploying FCoE (FIP Snooping) on Dell Force 10 MXL
The following command will show vital information on the DCBX configuration. Type:
dcbx detail. This command will show more specific detail about the configuration that has been
negotiated between the devices. In this example interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/3 is used as a
downlink to a host server and CNA installed in that system. Interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/52 is the
uplink into the top-of-rack FCF switch.
Some key items in these results will be "true or false" for is configuration source, Local DCBX
Compatibility mode is:, and Peer Operating version is:. These results will be important in
understanding the negotiations happen between the switches and CNA.
