Assigning a DCB map to a port or link aggregation group

The Edit Port dialog box - QoS tab allows you to assign DCB maps to ports and LAGs on a selected
switch.

NOTE

QoS maps are created using the Edit Switch dialog box, accessible from the DCB Configuration
dialog box.

A port can have either a DCB map or a Traffic Class map assigned to it, but it cannot have both.

1. Select Configure > DCB.

The DCB Configuration dialog box displays, showing the status of all DCB-related hardware and
functions.

2. Select a port or LAG, and click Edit.

3. Click the QoS tab on the Edit Port or Edit LAG dialog box.

The QoS dialog box displays.

4. Click the Assign a map to <device_name> check box to assign the selected port to a DCB map.

If you do not select this check box, all QoS edit features are disabled.

5. Select DCB Map in the Map Type list.

6. Select a DCB map in the Available DCB Maps list.

If no DCB maps were created on the switch, the Available DCB Maps list is empty. Otherwise,
the following DCB map details display:

PG - ID — Lists the priority group ID (15.0 through 15.7 and 0 through 7).

% Bandwidth — Lists the bandwidth value for priority group IDs 0-7. The total of all priority
groups must equal 100 percent.

Priority Flow checkbox — Check to enable priority-based flow control on individual priority
groups.

CoS — Lists the Class of Service (CoS) value that corresponds to the priority group ID rows.
The CoS value must be mapped to at least one of the priority group IDs (0-7).

7. When you have finished the configuration, click OK to launch the Deploy to Ports/LAGs dialog

box.
