Magnum 6K32 & 6K32T Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (12/05)

devices sending packets to cause “flow control”. This tells the sending devices to temporarily stop sending traffic, which allows a traffic catch-up to occur without dropping packets. Then, normal packet buffering and processing resumes.

Another feature implemented in Magnum 6K32T Switches is a collision-based flow-control mechanism (when operating half-duplex only). When the Switch detects that its free buffer queue space is low, the Switch prevents more frames from entering by forcing a collision signal on all receiving half-duplex ports to stop incoming traffic.
