Data buffer commands
Inappropriate data buffer changes can cause system problems. Before manually changing data buffer settings, make sure you understand its impact on your device. As a best practice, use the burst-mode enable command if the system requires large buffer spaces. The burst-mode enable command and the buffer apply command are mutually exclusive. If you have configured the data buffer by using one command, you must execute the undo form of the command before using the other command.
buffer apply
Use buffer apply to apply manually configured data buffer settings.
Use undo buffer apply to restore the default.
Syntax
buffer apply
undo buffer apply
Default
Manually configured data buffer settings are not applied.

Predefined user roles
network-admin
Usage guidelines
For data buffer settings to take effect, you must execute this command after configuring data buffer settings.
After applying manually configured data buffer settings, you cannot directly modify the applied settings. To modify them, you must cancel the application, reconfigure data buffer settings, and reapply the new settings.
Examples
# Apply manually configured data buffer settings.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] buffer apply
buffer packet-drop alarm enable
Use buffer packet-drop alarm enable to enable packet-drop alarms.
Use undo buffer packet-drop alarm enable to disable packet-drop alarms.
Syntax
buffer packet-drop alarm enable
undo buffer packet-drop alarm enable
Default
Packet-drop alarms are disabled.
Views
System view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Usage guidelines
The device generates and reports packet-drop alarms to a network management system (such as IMC) for displaying the data buffer usage.
This command does not take effect only on the Headroom buffer.
Examples
# Enable packet-drop alarms.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] buffer packet-drop alarm enable

buffer usage threshold queue
buffer packet-drop alarm interval
buffer packet-drop alarm interval
Use buffer packet-drop alarm interval to set the interval for sending packet-drop alarms.
Use undo buffer packet-drop alarm interval to restore the default.
Syntax
buffer packet-drop alarm interval interval
undo buffer packet-drop alarm interval
Default
The interval for sending packet-drop alarms is 5 seconds.

Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
interval: Specifies the interval for sending packet-drop alarms, in the range of 0 to 60 seconds. The value of 0 indicates that packet-drop alarms are sent immediately after they are generated.
Usage guidelines
This command takes effect only when packet-drop alarms are enabled.
Examples
# Set the interval for sending packet-drop alarms to 20 seconds.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] buffer packet-drop alarm interval 20
Related commands

buffer service-pool shared
Use buffer service-pool shared to set the maximum shared-area ratio or size for a service pool.
Use undo buffer service-pool shared to delete the maximum shared-area ratio or size setting of a service pool.
Syntax
buffer ingress [ slot slot-number ] cell service-pool sp-id shared ratio ratio
undo buffer ingress [ slot slot-number ] cell service-pool sp-id shared
Default
All of the shared area is reserved for service pool 0.

network-admin
Parameters
ingress: Specifies the ingress buffer.
slot slot-number: Specifies a card by its slot number.
cell: Specifies cell resources.
service-pool sp-id: Specifies a service pool by its ID. The value range for the sp-id argument is 1 to 3.
ratio ratio: Specifies the maximum shared-area ratio, in percentage. The value range for ratio is 0 to 99.
Usage guidelines
This command takes effect after you executed the buffer apply command.
The sum of the fixed-area ratios configured for all queues cannot exceed 100%. The queue that causes the sum of the fixed-area ratios to exceed 100% fails to be configured and still uses the default setting.
If you specify the slot slot-number option, this commmand applies to the specified slot. If you do not specify the option, this commmand applies to all slots. The configuration for a slot have higher priority over the configuration for all slots.
Examples
# Configure service pool 1 to use up to 50% shared-area space of cell resources in the egress buffer.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] buffer egress cell service-pool 1 shared ratio 50

Parameters
slot slot-number: Specifies a card by its slot number.
ratio ratio: Specifies the buffer usage threshold in percentage, in the range of 1 to 100.
Usage guidelines
This command takes effect only when the packet statistics collection mode is queue (configured by using the statistic mode queue command).
After you configure this command, the device automatically records buffer usage for each interface. When a queue on an interface uses more buffer space than the set threshold, the system counts one threshold violation for the queue.
To display the buffer usage statistics for interfaces, use the display buffer usage interface command.
Examples
# Set the per-interface buffer usage threshold to 50% for card 3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] buffer usage threshold slot 3 ratio 50

Usage guidelines
The Burst feature is especially useful for reducing packet losses under the following circumstances:
· Broadcast or multicast traffic is intensive, resulting in bursts of traffic.
· Traffic enters a device from a high-speed interface and goes out of a low-speed interface.
· Traffic enters a device from multiple same-rate interfaces and goes out of an interface with the same rate.

Egress |
Usage statistics for the egress buffer. |
Total |
Data buffer size allowed for a queue, in the number of cell resources. |
Used |
Data buffer size that has been used by a queue, in the number of cell resources.
|
Threshold(%) |
Buffer usage threshold for a queue. The threshold value is the same as the per-interface threshold value. |
Violations |
Number of threshold violations for a queue. The value of this field is reset upon a device reboot. |
Shared |
Number of cell resources in the shared area used by a queue. |
Headroom |
Number of cell resources in the Headroom area used by a queue. When a queue on an interface enabled with PFC enters PFC XOFF state, the interface sends XOFF frames to notify the peer interface to stop sending packets to that queue. Packets sent by the peer interface before it receives XOFF frames are stored in the Headroom area. |
XoffThres |
Back pressure frame triggering threshold. If a dynamic back pressure frame triggering threshold is configured, this field displays a percentage value. If a static back pressure frame triggering threshold is configured, this field displays an absolute value. |
TailDropThres |
Tail drop threshold. |
IsDynamic |
For the inbound direction, this field can be one of the following values: · 0—Indicates a static back pressure frame triggering threshold. · 1—Indicates a dynamic back pressure frame triggering threshold. For the outbound direction, this field can only be 1, which indicates a dynamic tail drop threshold. |
Used(%) |
Buffer usage in percentage. |
Free |
Free buffer in the number of cell resources. |
UsedPeak |
Peak used buffer in the number of cell resources during the time between two executions of the display buffer usage interface command. |
