the speed and duplex mode manually.

Flow Control
Whether or not the receiving node sends feedback to the sending
node is determined by this item. When enabled, once the device
exceeds the input data rate of another device, the receiving device
will send a PAUSE frame which halts the transmission of the sender
for a specified period of time. When disabled, the receiving device
will drop the packet if too much to process.
