A
flowcontrol
Use this command to configure the flow control capability of the port interface.
flowcontrol [send | receive] {on | off} [copper | fiber]
Default
send
:
off
receive
:
off
Command Mode
Interface configuration
Usage Guideline
Only physical port interfaces are valid for this configuration.
The command only assures that either the software configured or the
administration state complies with the
flowcontrol
command.
The actual operation of the hardware may prevent the
flowcontrol
command to
take effect. This is because flow control capability is determined by both the local
port, device and its linked partner instead of just the local setting.
If auto-negotiation is disabled (i.e. the speed and duplex are both set to a non-
auto setting), then the final flow-control setting will be determined by the
configured flow control setting.
If auto-negotiation is enabled (i.e. the speed or duplex setting is set to auto), the
final flow control setting will be based on the negotiated result between local side
setting and the partner side setting. The configured flow control setting here is
the local side setting.
If no option is selected for the direction, then both
send
and
receive
are applied.
For combo port interfaces, users must assign the medium type for this
configuration.
