SYNOPSIS dlsshow DESCRIPTION NOTES OPERANDS EXAMPLES SEE ALSO Use this command to display information about Dynamic Load Sharing configuration settings on the switch. Depending on the configuration, the command output displays one of the following messages: • DLS is set - DLS is enabled without the Lossless feature. Load sharing is reconfigured with every change in the fabric, and existing routes can be moved to maintain optimal balance. No attempt is made to prevent frames from being lost while load sharing is recomputed. • DLS is not set - DLS is disabled. Existing routes are never moved to maintain optimal balance. If the Lossless option was enabled before you disabled DLS, it is now disabled as well. This means, frame loss is not prevented during a load sharing recomputation. • DLS is set with Lossless enabled - DLS is enabled with the Lossless feature. Load sharing is recomputed with every change in the fabric, and existing routes can be moved to maintain optimal balance. In Lossless mode, no framers are lost during this operation. • DLS is set by default with current routing policy. DLS is set with Lossless enabled - Indicates that the current routing policy (Exchange-based) requires DLS to be enabled by default. In addition, the Lossless option is enabled.
