Verifying the DCB Configuration

To display DCB configurations, use the following show commands.

Table 1. Displaying DCB ConfigurationsDisplaying DCB Configurations
Command Output
show qos dot1p-queue mapping Displays the current 802.1p priority-queue mapping.
show dcb [stack-unit unit-number] Displays the data center bridging status, number of PFC-enabled ports, and number of PFC-enabled queues. On the master switch in a stack, you can specify a stack-unit number. The range is from 0 to 5.
show qos priority-groups Displays the ETS priority groups configured on the switch, including the 802.1p priority classes and ID of each group.
show interface port-type pfc {summary | detail} Displays the PFC configuration applied to ingress traffic on an interface, including priorities and link delay.

To clear PFC TLV counters, use the clear pfc counters interface port-type slot/port command.

show interface port-type pfc statistics

Displays counters for the PFC frames received and transmitted (by dot1p priority class) on an interface.

You can use the show interface pfc statistics command even without enabling DCB on the system.

show interface port-type ets {summary | detail} Displays the ETS configuration applied to egress traffic on an interface, including priority groups with priorities and bandwidth allocation.

To clear ETS TLV counters, enter the clear ets counters interface port-type slot/port command.

show interface port-type DCBx detail Plays the DCBx configuration on an interface.
show stack-unit {0-11 | all} stack ports all pfc details Displays the PFC configuration applied to ingress traffic, including priorities and link delay.
show stack-unit {0-11 | all} stack ports all ets details Displays the ETS configuration applied to ingress traffic on stack-links, including priorities and link delay.

Examples of the show Commands

The following example shows the show dot1p-queue mapping command.

DellEMC(conf)# show qos dot1p-queue-mapping
Dot1p Priority: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Queue         : 0 0 0 1 2 3 3 3

The following example shows the show dcb command.

DellEMC# show dcb
stack-unit 2 port-set 0
     DCB Status : Enabled
 PFC Port Count : 56 (current), 56 (configured)
PFC Queue Count : 2 (current),  2 (configured)

The following example shows the show qos priority-groups command.

DellEMC#show qos priority-groups
priority-group ipc
  priority-list 4
  set-pgid 2

The following example shows the output of the show qos dcb-map test command.

The following table describes the show interface DCBx detail command fields.

Table 4. show interface DCBx detail Command Descriptionshow interface DCBx detail Command Description
Field Description
Interface Interface type with chassis slot and port number.
Port-Role Configured DCBx port role: auto-upstream, auto-downstream, config-source, or manual.
DCBx Operational Status Operational status (enabled or disabled) used to elect a configuration source and internally propagate a DCB configuration. The DCBx operational status is the combination of PFC and ETS operational status.
Configuration Source Specifies whether the port serves as the DCBx configuration source on the switch: true (yes) or false (no).
Local DCBx Compatibility mode DCBx version accepted in a DCB configuration as compatible. In auto-upstream mode, a port can only received a DCBx version supported on the remote peer.
Local DCBx Configured mode DCBx version configured on the port: CEE, CIN, IEEE v2.5, or Auto (port auto-configures to use the DCBx version received from a peer).
Peer Operating version DCBx version that the peer uses to exchange DCB parameters.
Local DCBx TLVs Transmitted Transmission status (enabled or disabled) of advertised DCB TLVs (see TLV code at the top of the show command output).
Local DCBx Status: DCBx Operational Version DCBx version advertised in Control TLVs.
Local DCBx Status: DCBx Max Version Supported Highest DCBx version supported in Control TLVs.
Local DCBx Status: Sequence Number Sequence number transmitted in Control TLVs.
Local DCBx Status: Acknowledgment Number Acknowledgement number transmitted in Control TLVs.
Local DCBx Status: Protocol State Current operational state of DCBx protocol: ACK or IN-SYNC.
Peer DCBx Status: DCBx Operational Version DCBx version advertised in Control TLVs received from peer device.
Peer DCBx Status: DCBx Max Version Supported Highest DCBx version supported in Control TLVs received from peer device.
Peer DCBx Status: Sequence Number Sequence number transmitted in Control TLVs received from peer device.
Peer DCBx Status: Acknowledgment Number Acknowledgement number transmitted in Control TLVs received from peer device.
Total DCBx Frames transmitted Number of DCBx frames sent from local port.
Total DCBx Frames received Number of DCBx frames received from remote peer port.
Total DCBx Frame errors Number of DCBx frames with errors received.
Total DCBx Frames unrecognized Number of unrecognizable DCBx frames received.
