Enabling flow control
If you use a Gigabit Ethernet with the Ethernet Routing Switch 2500 Series,
you control traffic on this port using the flowcontrol command. This
section covers the following commands:
"flowcontrol command" (page 240)
"no flowcontrol command" (page 241)
"default flowcontrol command" (page 242)
flowcontrol command
The flowcontrol command is used only on Gigabit Ethernet ports
and controls the traffic rates during congestion. The syntax for the
flowcontrol command is:
flowcontrol [port <portlist>]
{asymmetric|symmetric|auto|disable}
The flowcontrol command is executed in the Interface Configuration
command mode.
Table 100 "flowcontrol command parameters and variables" (page
