7. Flow Control - Enables or disables flow control on the ports. Flow control is used for 9145E's that
have a speed mismatch between the user port and the network port and are attached to
equipment which can buffer overflow traffic. If Flow Control is enabled the 9145E will begin to
transmit PAUSE frames when its buffers are 3/4ths full. Use the Space Bar to cycle between User
Port Enabled, Net Port Enabled, Both Ports Enabled, and Disabled.
8. Maximum Frame Size - Sets the maximum allowable Ethernet Frame size the 9145E will forward
for both ports. Frames exceeding the Maximum Frame Size will be counted as Oversize Packets
and will be dropped. Frames destined for the 9145E Manager are exempt from the limit.
Enter the Maximum Frame Size between 1518 and 10000.
