Port Type

This option shows the Port Type menu. From this menu you can select one of the
following port types; the current type is indicated:
Access (default; does not carry the VLAN tag)
Trunk (carries the VLAN tag)
Type the number for the port type you want, and then press ENTER. Note that the
Port Type must be set to Trunk to configure Pause Type and FCoE CoS (see the
following sections).
When the network (Ethernet) port is configured as a trunk port, packets are
tagged. When the port is configured as an access port, packets are untagged and
do not contain a VLAN tag.
Pause Type
3: HBA Parameters
This option shows the Pause Type menu. Pause types include Standard Pause
and Priority Flow Control (per-priority pause). Pause is a frame that controls the
flow between transmitter and receiver if the transmitter sends data at a higher rate
than the receiver. In that situation, the receiver sends a PAUSE frame to the
transmitter and the transmitter suspends transmission for the specified time.
From the Pause Type menu you can select one of the following pause types; the
current type is indicated:
Standard Pause (default)
Priority Flow Control
Type the number for the pause type you want, and then press ENTER.
Standard Pause applies to all the frames. By default, Standard Pause is enabled
on the server-facing Ethernet ports, as well as on the network-facing Ethernet
ports.This setting affects the connection only when connected to a peer that is not
configured with data center bridging capability exchange protocol (DCBX).
