Configure LLDP DCBX TLVs

You can enable or disable the transmission of DCBX TLV types on a port. This example uses port 0/2.

  1. Enable DCBX TLVs for PG, PFC, and the application.
    SEFOS# configure terminal
    SEFOS(config)# interface extreme-ethernet 0/2
    SEFOS(config-if)# lldp tlv-select dcb1tlv priority-group priority-flow-control application-etype-fcoe
    SEFOS(config)# end
  2. View the TLV settings.
    SEFOS# show interfaces extreme-ethernet 0/2 dcb priority-group
     
    Port             :      Ex0/2
    Show Type        :      Admin Config
    Feature          :      Priority Group
    Enable           :      true
