Flow Control Commands
In 802.3x flow control, the MAC control PAUSE operation is specified in IEEE 802.3 Annex
31 B. It allows traffic from one device to be throttled for a specified period of time and is
defined for devices that are directly connected. A device that needs to inhibit transmission of
data frames from another device on the LAN transmits a PAUSE frame as defined in the
IEEE specification.

defined for devices that are directly connected. A device that needs to inhibit transmission of

This feature allows the user to configure the switch to use symmetric, asymmetric, or no flow
control. Asymmetric flow control allows the switch to respond to received PAUSE frames, but
the port cannot generate PAUSE frames. Symmetric flow control allows the switch to both
respond to and generate MAC control PAUSE frames.
