You can override the negotiation result by force-enabling the PFC capability. To force-enable the PFC
capability, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# interface type slot/port
Step 3
switch(config-if)# priority-flow-control
mode {auto|on}
Priority flow control is configured on the individual member interfaces of a port channel. The PFC
Note
configuration must be consistent across all members of the port channel for the port channel to become
operational.
The following example shows how to force-enable PFC on an interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/2
switch(config-if)# priority-flow-control mode on
To disable PFC capability for an interface, perform this task:
Command
switch(config-if)# no
priority-flow-control mode

Configuring IEEE 802.3x Link-Level Flow Control

By default, link-level flow control capability on Ethernet interfaces is disabled. You can enable link-level
flow-control capability for the transmit and receive directions.
To enable link-level flow control capability, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# interface type slot/port
Step 3
switch(config-if)# flowcontrol [receive
{on|off}] [transmit {on|off}]
The following example enables link-level flow control frames on an interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/2
switch(config-if)# flowcontrol receive on transmit on
