Fair Adaptive Dynamic Thresholds (FADT) provides efficient allocation of shared packet buffer resources amongst

Priority-Flow-Control (PFC) Fair Adaptive Dynamic Threshold (FADT) configuration facilitates efficient utilization of packet buffer resources for both lossy and lossless traffic. Reserve headroom buffer resources to absorb in-flight packets for congested, lossless flows. Assign default or user-defined PFC profiles to interface/PFC priority pairs, called Priority Groups (PG), to dynamically manage packet buffer usage and assertion of PFC pause.
