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 is active, the Dell OS displays an error message
instructing you to remove the default configuration using the no buffer-
profile global command.
Reload the system for the global buffer-profile to take effect.
