In addition to the standard statistics, Virtual Connect also provides additional information on DCBX. DCBX is

the data center discovery and capability exchange protocol used by DCB devices to exchange configuration

information with directly-connected peers. The protocol can also be used for misconfiguration detection and
for configuration of the peer. In this release, the VC module adopts the DCBX specification to implement the

control state machine and three feature state machines:

Priority Group (PG)

Priority-based Flow Control (PFC)

Application Protocol (AP)

The following tables lists the type of DCBX statistics displayed.
