Parameter

Description

FlowControl InUse

Shows the flow control type in use. Flow control

 

can eliminate frame loss by “blocking” traffic

 

from end stations connected directly to the

 

switch. Back pressure is used for half duplex

 

and IEEE 802.3x for full duplex. Note that flow

 

control should not be used if a port is connected

 

to a hub.

Speed and DuplexInUse

Displays the current port speed and duplex

 

mode used. (Note that auto-negotiation is not

 

available for 100BASE-FX ports.)
