Usage
Information
The buffer-profile global command fails if you have already applied a custom buffer-profile on an 
interface. Similarly, when you configure buffer-profile global, you cannot not apply buffer-profile on 
any interface.
If the default buffer-profile (4Q) is active, FTOS displays an error message instructing you to remove 
the default configuration using the no buffer-profile global command.
You must reload the system for the global buffer-profile to take effect.
