Asymmetric Flow Control
Asymmetric Flow Control
When in asymmetric flow control mode, the switch responds to PAUSE frames
received from a peer by stopping packet transmission, but the switch does not
initiate MAC control PAUSE frames.
When you configure the switch in asymmetric flow control (or no flow control
mode), the device is placed in egress drop mode. Egress drop mode maximizes
the throughput of the system at the expense of packet loss in a heavily congested
system, and this mode avoids head-of-line blocking.
