Usage

  1. You want to enable flow control on ports A1-A6.

  2. Later, you decide to disable flow control on ports A5 and A6.

  3. As a final step, you want to disable flow control on all ports.

Assuming that flow control is currently disabled on the switch, you would use these commands:

switch# show interfaces brief
