DCB Tab Field Definitions

DCBX State – The current DCBX (Data Center discovery and Capability
exchange protocol) state (enabled or disabled).

LLDP Transmit State – DCBX uses Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) to
exchange parameters between two link peers. For the DCBX protocol to operate
correctly, both LLDP receive and transmit states must be enabled. If either the
receive or transmit state is disabled, DCBX is disabled.

LLDP Receive State – DCBX uses LLDP to exchange parameters between two
link peers. For the DCBX protocol to operate correctly, both LLDP receive and
transmit states must be enabled. If either the receive or transmit states is
disabled, DCBX is disabled.
