flow-control

Syntax

[no] flow-control [<mode>]

Description

Enables flow control on an interface. Each invocation of this command overrides the previous configuration.

NOTE:

On auto-negotiated ports, this configuration is used for the advertisement and the final configuration is resolved with the link partner capabilities. On non-auto-negotiated ports, this configuration is forced onto the port.

The no form of this command disables flow control on an interface.
