Command Usage
• Flow control can eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic from end
stations or segments connected directly to the switch when its buffers
fill. When enabled, back pressure is used for half-duplex operation and
IEEE 802.3x for full-duplex operation.
• To force flow control on or off (with the flowcontrol or no
flowcontrol command), use the no negotiation command to disable
auto-negotiation on the selected interface.
