ENABLE SWITCH PORT FLOW

Syntax

enable switch port=

port

flow=pause

Parameter

port

Specifies the port where you want to activate flow

control. You can specify more than one port at a time.
You can specify the ports individually (for example,
5,7,22), as a range (for example, 18-23), or both (for
example, 1,5,14-22).

Description

This command activates flow control on a port. Flow control only applies to
ports operating in full duplex mode. When flow control is activated, a port
sends out a PAUSE packet whenever it wants the end node to stop
sending packets.

Example

The following command activates flow control on port 5:

enable switch port=5 flow=pause

Equivalent Command

set switch port=

port

flowcontrol=enable
