Hey Roger,

I saw those briefs on cisco doc cd, however they are not explaining much. For example, if you 'flowcontrol receive on' on a port which the other side does not support - is the port going to function at all? And whats the point of having the 'on' if there is 'desirable'?

Roger RPF <rpf@bluemail.ch> wrote: flowcontrol receive on: Enables a local port to receive and process pause
frames from remote ports.

flowcontrol receive desired: Obtains predictable results regardless of
whether a remote port is set to on, off, or desired.

regards

Roger

Anyone knows whats the difference between 'flowcontrol receive on' vs
'flowcontrol receive desired'?
