Configuration Example for DSCP and PFC Priorities

Consider a scenario in which the following DSCP and PFC priorities are necessary:

DSCP
0 – 5, 10 - 15  20 – 25, 30 – 35
Expected PFC Priority
1      2

To configure the aforementioned DSCP and PFC priority values, perform the following tasks:

  1. Create class-maps to group the DSCP subsets

    class-map match-any dscp-pfc-1
     match ip dscp 0-5,10-15
    !
    class-map match-any dscp-pfc-2
     match ip dscp 20-25,30-35
  2. Associate above class-maps to Queues Queue assignment as below.

    NOTE Although, each port on the S4810, S4820T, and S5000 devices support 8 QoS queues, you can configure only 4 QoS queues (0-3)to manage data traffic. The remaining 4 queues (4-7) are reserved for control traffic.

  3. Dot1p->Queue Mapping Configuration is retained at the default value.
    Default dot1p-queue mapping is, 
    DellEMC#show qos dot1p-queue-mapping
     Dot1p Priority : 0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7
              Queue : 0  0  0  1  2  3  3  3
    Default dot1p-queue mapping is, 
    DellEMC#show qos dot1p-queue-mapping
     Dot1p Priority : 0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7
              Queue : 2  0  1  3  4  5  6  7
  4. Interface Configurations on server connected ports.

    1. Enable DCB globally.

      DellEMC(conf)#dcb enable
    2. Apply PFC Priority configuration. Configure priorities on which PFC is enabled.

      DellEMC(conf-if-te-1/1)#pfc priority 1,2
