Enable DCB for Each Interface

By default, all three features are enabled. However, to use the features, the global interface state must be turned on.

This example uses port 0/21.

  1. Enable DCB on a specific interface.
    SEFOS# configure terminal 
    SEFOS(config)# interface extreme-ethernet 0/21
    SEFOS(config-if)# set dcb enable
    SEFOS(config-if)# no shutdown
    SEFOS(config-if)# end
  2. View the interface configuration.

    These examples show the default configurations.

    SEFOS# show interfaces extreme-ethernet 0/21 description
     
    Interface    Status   Protocol
    ---------    ------   --------
    Ex0/21          up       up
  3. Display the DCB state and feature mode on a specific interface.
    SEFOS# show interfaces extreme-ethernet 0/2 dcb mode
     
    Port                  : Ex0/21
    Show Type             : Admin State
    DCB Capable State     : on
