Important Considerations
Flow control allows a port to:
Decrease the frequency with which it sends packets to a receiving
device, if packets are being sent too rapidly.
Send flow control packets to a sending device, to request that the
device slow its speed of transmission to the port.
The system does not count flow control packets in either receive or
transmit statistics.
