Usage
Information
If you attempt to apply a buffer profile to a non-existent port-pipe, the Dell
Networking OS displays the following message. However, the configuration still
appears in the running-config.
%DIFFSERV-2-DSA_BUFF_CARVING_INVALID_PORT_SET: Invalid FP port-
set 2 for stack–unit 2. Valid range of port-set is <0-1>
When you remove a buffer-profile using the no buffer-profile [fp | csf]
command from CONFIGURATION mode, the buffer-profile name still appears in
the output of show buffer-profile [detail | summary]. After a line card
reset, the buffer profile correctly returns to the default values, but the profile name
remains. Remove it from the show buffer-profile [detail | summary]
command output by entering no buffer [fp-uplink | csf] buffer-
policy from CONFIGURATION mode and no buffer-policy from INTERFACE
mode.
