flow-control
Syntax
On the 8320 switch series:
flow-control rx
[no] flow-control rx
On the 8325 switch series:
flow-control {rx | priority <PRIORITY>}
[no] flow-control [rx | priority <PRIORITY>]
Description
Enables negotiation of receive flow control on the current interface. The switch advertises rx support to the link partner. The final configuration is determined based on the capabilities of both partners.
Priority-based flow control (PFC), on the 8325 switch only, takes effect after the configuration is saved to startup-config and the switch is restarted.
The no form disables flow control support on the current interface.
Command context
config-if
Authority
Administrators or local user group members with execution rights for this command.
Parameters

Enables the ability to cease and resume transmission when receiving IEEE 802.3x link-level pause frames on the current interface.
priority <PRIORITY>
On the 8325 switch only, enables priority-based flow control on the current interface and sets the priority number. Range: 0 to 7.
