Setting Flow Control for Ethernet Port
If congestion occurs in the local switch after enabling flow control in both the local
and the peer switch, then the switch will inform its peer to pause sending packets.
Once the peer switch receives this message, it will pause packet sending, and vice
versa. In this way, packet loss is effectively reduced. The flow control function of
the Ethernet port can be enabled or disabled through the following command.
Perform the following configuration in Ethernet port view.
By default, Ethernet port flow control is disabled.
Permitting/Forbidding Jumbo Frames on the Ethernet port
Using the
jumbo frame enable
command, you can allow jumbo frames (1523 to
to 9216 bytes) to pass through the specified Ethernet port. Note that packets up
to 1522 bytes, including the IEEE 802.1Q tagging are always allowed to pass
through Ethernet ports.
Jumbo frames are only allowed for Ethernet Type II frames. Most network
equipment, including NICs, switches, and routers are not capable of supporting
jumbo frames and will always discard these packets.
Perform the following configuration in Ethernet port view.
By default, jumbo frames are disabled.
Setting the Maximum MAC Addresses an Ethernet Port can Learn
Use the following command to set a limit on the number of MAC addresses that
an Ethernet port will learn.
Perform the following configuration in Ethernet port view.
