duplex or half duplex. The following table summarizes the functions that
each media type supports.

Select from either Enable or Disable for Flow Control. If flow control is set to
Enabled, then both parties can send PAUSE frames to the transmitting
device(s) if the receiving port is too busy to handle the data rate being sent
to it. When it is set to Disabled, then there will be no flow control on the port.
In congested situations the switch will drop packets. Default State : Enable
