Device Scan

The Device Scan feature queries the connected device during login for FC-4
descriptor information. Disable this parameter only if the scan creates a conflict
with the connected device.

DCBX

The DCBX (data center bridging capability exchange) parameter on the Port
Properties dialog enables the peer-to-peer DCBX protocol capability on the
internal (only) ports. This parameter is not allowed on PT ports.

PFC Priority

The PFC Priority parameter on the Port Properties dialog enables you to set the
priority-based flow control parameter for internal (only) ports. This parameter is
not allowed on PT ports.

a port, do the following:
