dcbx application

Syntax

dcbx application {ISCSI | TCP-SCTP <PORT-NUM> | TCP-SCTP-UDP <PORT-NUM> | UDP <PORT-NUM> | 

ether <ETHERTYPE>} priority <PRIORITY> 

no dcbx application

Description

Configures application to priority map that gets advertised in DCBx application priority messages. This tells the DCBx peer to send the application traffic with the configured priority so that the traffic is treated as lossless. Multiple applications can be configured in this manner. PFC lossless priority configured on the switch should be the same as this priority.

The no form of this command removes the existing configuration.
