Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

cos cos-value: Specifies the CoS value of packets, in the range of 0 to 7. Different CoS values correspond to different 802.1p priority values. To see the CoS-to-802.1p mapping, execute the display qos map-table dot1p-lp command.

delay delay-interval: Specifies the delay timer for PFC deadlock detection automatic recovery, in the range of 1 to 15.

Usage guidelines

PFC deadlock detection periodically detects whether deadlock occurs to packets carrying the specified CoS value. If the device enters the PFC deadlock state and PFC deadlock detection is recovered in automatic mode, the device automatically recovers PFC deadlock detection after the delay timer expires. The delay timer is 100 ms + delay-interval * 100 ms.

This command takes effect only in automatic recovery mode. When the device is in the PFC deadlock state, you cannot execute this command.

The specified CoS value must be within the 802.1p priority values configured by using the priority-flow-control no-drop dot1p command.

You can set the same delay timer for different CoS values.

If you execute this command multiple times for the same CoS value, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Examples

# Set the delay timer for PFC deadlock detection automatic recovery to 5 for packets carrying CoS value 7.

Views

System view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

cos cos-value: Specifies the CoS value of packets, in the range of 0 to 7.

interval interval: Specifies the PFC deadlock detection interval in the range of 1 to 15.

If you do not specify this keyword, the PFC feature and PFC deadlock detection feature are automatically recovered on an interface when the detection interval expires, no matter whether the interface receives PFC pause frames.

Usage guidelines

The PFC deadlock detection feature periodically detects whether deadlock occurs to packets that carry the specified CoS value. To obtain the length of time for the detection interval, multiply the detection interval by the precision of the PFC deadlock detection timer.

The PFC deadlock detection interval for a CoS value is the product of the interval argument configured by using the priority-flow-control deadlock cos interval command and the precision configured by using the priority-flow-control deadlock precision command. For example, if you execute the priority-flow-control deadlock cos 5 interval 10 command to set the interval argument to 10 for CoS priority 5 and execute the priority-flow-control deadlock precision command to set the precision to high (which represents 10 milliseconds) for CoS priority 5, the PFC deadlock detection interval for CoS priority 5 is 10*10 =100 milliseconds.

The specified CoS value must be within the 802.1p priority list specified by using the priority-flow-control no-drop dot1p command. To view the 802.1p priority for each CoS value, execute the display qos map-table dot1p-lp command.

You can set the same detection interval for different CoS values.

If you execute this command for the same CoS value multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

You cannot execute this command when the device is in PFC deadlock state.

Usage guidelines

Before executing this command, first use the priority-flow-control deadlock recover-mode command to configure the recovery mode for PFC deadlock detection.

The device can automatically release the deadlock state, but both the PFC deadlock detection and PFC features are disabled on the interface at the same time. To manually recover PFC deadlock detection on the interface, execute this command after setting the manual recovery mode for PFC deadlock detection on the interface. The PFC feature is also enabled again when you execute this command.

When the device is in the PFC deadlock state, you cannot execute this command.

Examples

# Recover PFC deadlock detection on Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

Default

PFC deadlock detection recovers in automatic mode on an interface.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

auto: Specifies the automatic recovery mode.

manual: Specifies the manual recovery mode.

Usage guidelines

When the PFC deadlock state is detected and PFC deadlock detection is recovered in automatic mode, the device automatically releases the deadlock state and recovers PFC and PFC deadlock detection after the delay timer expires. Within the delay timer period, the device disables PFC and PFC deadlock detection on the interface, so that packets can be forwarded properly. PFC deadlock detection can be recovered in automatic or manual mode on the interface. Recovering this feature enables the PFC feature again at the same time. Use the automatic recovery mode when no serious failures occur.

When a packet loop cannot be resolved and the device enters the PFC deadlock state frequently, manually recover PFC deadlock detection on the interface as follows:

1. Perform troubleshooting and set the manual recovery mode for PFC deadlock detection.

2. Execute the priority-flow-control deadlock recover command to recover the PFC deadlock detection and PFC features.

When the device is in the PFC deadlock state, you cannot execute this command.

network-admin

Parameters

period period: Specifies the period for detecting PFC deadlock times, in the range of 1 to 60 seconds.

count count: Specifies the upper threshold for PFC deadlock times within the specified period, in the range of 1 to 500.

error-down: Shuts down an interface when the number of PFC deadlock times within the detection period reaches the upper threshold. If you do not specify this keyword, PFC will be disabled for the corresponding 802.1p priority when the number of PFC deadlock times within the detection period reaches the upper threshold.

Usage guidelines

With this command executed, when the PFC deadlock times within the specified period exceed the upper threshold on an interface, the device disables PFC for the corresponding 802.1p priority on the interface. To recover the PFC feature on the interface in this case, execute the undo priority-flow-control deadlock threshold command.

The detection period specified in this command must be longer than the PFC deadlock detection interval configured by using the priority-flow-control deadlock cos command, so that you can determine whether the device frequently enters the PFC deadlock state.

When the device is in the PFC deadlock state, you cannot execute this command.

The specified CoS value must be within the 802.1p priority values configured by using the priority-flow-control no-drop dot1p command.

You can set the same detection period for different CoS values.

If you execute this command multiple times for the same CoS value, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Parameters

error-down: Shuts down an interface when the number of PFC deadlock times within the specified detection period reaches the upper threshold and stops traffic forwarding on the interface.

turn-off: Disables PFC for the corresponding 802.1p priority when the number of PFC deadlock times within the specified detection period reaches the upper threshold.

Usage guidelines

The threshold for PFC deadlock times and the detection period are configured by using the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold command in system view. If the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold action command is not executed on the interface, the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold command in system view takes effect. If the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold action command is executed on the interface, this command takes effect.

If the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold command is not executed in system view, the priority-flow-control deadlock threshold action command on the interface does not take effect.

If the turn-off keyword is specified, the device disables PFC for the corresponding 802.1p priority on the interface when the number of PFC deadlock times within the specified detection period exceeds the upper threshold. To recover PFC on the interface in this case, first execute the undo priority-flow-control enable command and then execute the priority-flow-control enable command. Alternatively, you can execute the undo priority-flow-control deadlock threshold command to recover PFC on an interface. However, this command might affect the PFC state on multiple interfaces. Use this command as needed.

If the error-down keyword is specified, the device shuts down the interface when the number of PFC deadlock times within the specified detection period exceeds the upper threshold on the interface. To bring up the interface and recover PFC on the interface in this case, execute the undo shutdown command on the interface.

Parameters

dot1p-list: Specifies an 802.1p priority (or dot1p priority) list to identify flows that are subject to PFC (for example: 1,3-5). A hyphen (-) connects two numeric values, which together indicate a continuous value range. Different values or value ranges are separated with commas (,). You can configure up to 16 characters for this argument.

Usage guidelines

If you enable PFC and execute this command on both the local and peer devices, the local device will notify the peer device to stop transmitting packets with the specified 802.1p priority when congestion occurs. When congestion is removed, the local device notifies the peer device to transmitting the packets again. This prevents packet loss for traffic with the specified priority. For more information about 802.1p priority, see QoS configuration in ACL and QoS Configuration Guide.

This command is mutually exclusive with the flow-control command or the flow-control receive enable command.

If you execute this command multiple times in system view and interface view, the most recent configuration takes effect.

If you enable or disable PFC for the specified 802.1p priority when packets are being forwarded, traffic will be interrupted, and transient packet loss will occur.
