82 Flow Control

ELS100-24TX

The pause frame flow control mechanism supported by the ELS100-24TX
switch conforms with the IEEE 802.3x specification for full duplex flow
control.

The ELS100-24TX Port Statistics Screen indicates the number of pause
frames that have been sent, indicating the number of times full duplex flow
control has occurred. For the full duplex pause frame mechanism to work,
the device connected to the switch port must also support IEEE 802.3x
flow control. Flow Control is configurable per port in the Port Configuration
Menu of the console menu or via SNMP.
