Enabling or Disabling 802.3x Flow Control
Use the following procedure to control traffic and avoid congestion, such as
when there is a shortage of buffer resources for the port. Flow control is
accomplished by means of standard PAUSE control frames for each port,
independent of all others. Before you can enable flow control for a port, that
port must be configured to operate in Full Duplex mode.

If you enable flow control on a port, and that port runs short of buffer
resources, the port will transmit PAUSE frames. When it receives them, the
link partner obeys these PAUSE frames. When the low-resource situation is
relieved, the port sends out PAUSE frames with zero time values. This ends
the pause staste that was imposed on the end-station.
