Description

Use this command to advertise application TLVs to ensure interoperability of traffic over DCBX
packets. Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) parameters related to FCoE must be negotiated
before FCoE traffic can begin on a CEE link. An FCoE application TLV is exchanged over the LLDP
protocol, which negotiates information such as FCoE priority, and Priority Flow Control (PFC) pause.
Use the no advertise dcbx-fcoe-app-tlv command to return to the default setting.
