set port flowcontrol

User level: read-write, admin.
Use the set port flowcontrol command to set the send/receive mode for
flow-control frames (IEEE 802.3x or proprietary) for a full duplex port. Each
direction (send or receive) can be configured separately.

The syntax for this command is:

set port flowcontrol

[direction] <module/port> [value]

Example:

direction

• receive – determines whether the port can receive

administrative status from a remote device.
Available only for Gigabit Ethernet modules with negotiation set to
off.

• send – determines whether the local port can send

administrative status to a remote device.
Available only for Gigabit Ethernet modules with negotiation set to
off.

• all – send and receive (symmetric flow control).

module

Number of the module.

port

Number of the port on the module.

value

• off – used with receive to turn off an attached device's ability

to send flow-control packets to a local port. Used with send
to turn off the local port's ability to send administrative
status to a remote device.

• on – used with receive to require that a local port receive

administrative status from a remote device. Used with send,
the local port sends administrative status to a remote device.
