Choosing a High Speed Flow Control Mode

The High Speed Flow Control feature allows you to control traffic and avoid

congestion on the gigabit full-duplex link. If the receive port buffer becomes full,

the gigabit MDA issues a flow-control signal to the device at the other end of the

link to suspend transmission. When the receive buffer is no longer full, the MDA

issues a signal to resume the transmission.

You can choose Symmetric or Asymmetric flow-control mode.
