Summary: Re: changing/setting flow control
|
|
Thanks for the responses from following people.
tmac <tmacmd [at] gmail>
"Ed Wilts" <ewilts [at] ewilts>
"Filip Sneppe" <filip.sneppe [at] gmail>
April Jenner <aprilogi [at] yahoo>
jemans [at] xs4all
Worked like a charm...this morning on the:
Cisco switch, enable flowcontrol
flowcontrol send on
flowcontrol receive on
Filer, enable flowcontrol
ifconfig int_name flowcontrol full
update ./etc/rc files
ifstat now reports full flowcontrol on the GigE interface.
There were recommendations that the Cisco port should be set first and
then the filer NIC.
Thanks,
George
