Implementing Congestion Notification

To implement congestion notification:

  • Globally enable congestion notification on the device
  • Create congestion notification priority values and optionally specify the creation mode for the CNPVs
  • Activate the configured congestion notification priority values on all switch ports
  • Optionally modify the transmit priority for the CNM PDU sent by the congestion point to the reaction point
  • Optionally modify the default domain defense mode for a priority for the device or on a port basis
  • Optionally modify the default priority choice globally or on a port basis
  • Optionally modify the default alternate priority for a CNPV globally or on a port basis
  • Optionally enable congestion notification LLDP for a CNPV for the device or on a port basis
  • If priority choice auto is configured on a port, enable the sending of congestion notification TLVs in the LLDP PDUs for each congestion point port on the system.
