Parameter

Parameter

Description

restore-action <forward | drop>

Configures the restore action after a deadlock is detected on the device. The value could be forward or drop.

forward: forwards received data packets.
drop: drops received data packets.

The default value is forward.

Usage Guidelines

During the PFC deadlock recovery process, the received PFC PAUSE frame will be ignored, and the internal scheduler will resume forwarding the traffic. It is also possible to configure the system to drop the traffic and restore the normal PFC flow control mechanism after the recovery timer.

Example

Configure the restore action after a deadlock occurs on the device.
