Configuring The uplink (port 9) defaults to symmetric (both outgoing and incoming) the Uplink for flow control. You must configure the uplink for asymmetric flow control Asymmetric to connect it to a server or 10/100 Mbps switch. The server or switch Flow Control must have the appropriate NIC or uplink device, support flow control,

and be configured to receive pause frames.

The following example shows how to configure the uplink for asymmetric flow control by disabling auto-negotiation, enabling outgoing flow control, and disabling incoming flow control. With this configuration, the uplink is set to forced link and can send pause frames but ignores pause frames that it receives. (For more details on flow control, see “Flow Control” in Chapter 1.)
