Manage Flow Control
Flow control works by pausing a port if the port becomes oversubscribed and dropping
all traffic for small bursts of time during the congestion condition. You can enable or
disable IEEE 802.3x flow control. By default, flow control is disabled.
To manage flow control:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that
is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

Manage the Port Speed and the Port Status

the speed using autonegotiation with the link partner. You can select a specific port
speed setting for each port, or disable a port by shutting it down manually.
You can also add a description to a port.
