U
Flow control with a full duplex link
In the example (see Fig. 37) there is a full duplex link between Work-
station 2 and the Switch.
Before the send queue of Port 2 overflows, the Switch sends a request to
Workstation 2 to include a small break in the sending transmission.
U
Flow control with a half duplex link
In the example (see Fig. 37) there is a half duplex link between Work-
station 2 and the Switch.
Before the send queue of Port 2 overflows, the Switch sends data so
that workstation 2 detects a collision and thus interrupts the transmis-
sion.
