When congestion occurs, the interface sends a flow control frame to its peer.
{
When the interface receives a flow control frame from its peer, it suspends sending packets
to its peer.

Rx-mode generic flow control
—Enabled by using the
flow-control receive enable
command. With Rx-mode generic flow control enabled, an interface can receive flow control
frames, but it cannot send flow control frames:
{
When congestion occurs, the interface cannot send flow control frames to its peer.
{
When the interface receives a flow control frame from its peer, it suspends sending packets
to its peer.
To handle unidirectional traffic congestion on a link, configure the
flow-control receive enable
command at one end and the
flow-control
command at the other end. To enable both ends of a link
to handle traffic congestion, configure the
flow-control
command at both ends.
To enable generic flow control on an Ethernet interface:

Configuring PFC on an Ethernet interface
When congestion occurs in the network, the local device notifies the peer to stop sending packets
carrying the specified 802.1p priority if all of the following conditions exist:
•
Both the local end and the remote end have PFC enabled.
•
Both the local end and the remote end have the
priority-flow-control no-drop dot1p
command configured.
•
The specified 802.1p priority is in the 802.1p priority list specified by the
dot1p-list
argument.
•
The local end receives a packet carrying the specified 802.1p priority.
The state of the PFC feature is determined by the PFC configuration on the local end and on the peer
end. In
:
•
The first row lists the PFC configuration on the local interface.
•
The first column lists the PFC configuration on the peer.
•
The
Enabled
and
Disabled
fields in other cells are possible negotiation results.
Make sure all interfaces that a data flow passes through have the same PFC configuration.
