Dividing BW on FCoE Links

A converged10G  FCoE link carries data and storage traffic. By default,  how is that 10G link divided between the two types of traffic? What are the percentages? I believe the Nexus has a default configuration for PFC and ETS that define the division of BW.

Hello,

I do not have vanilla FI to check the defaults but I assume it is be 50 % for best effort and 50% for FC.

These reservations are applied only during the period of congestion.  If there is no FCoE traffic, Ethernet can use all the available bandwidth.
