3.25 flowcontrol
This command is used to set the send or receive flow-control value for an interface.
If flowcontrol send is on for a device and if it detects any congestion at its end, then it notifies the link
partner or the remote device of the congestion by sending a pause frame.
If flowcontrol receive is on for the remote device and it receives a pause frame, then it stops sending any
data packets. This prevents any loss of data packets during the congestion period.
The receive off and send off keywords can be used to disable flow control.
flowcontrol { send | receive} { on | off }
