## /config/system/interface/<intf_name>/txFlowControl

Use

Generally, we recommend leaving flow control off for both receive and send,
unless you have a specific reason to turn it on.

Turning flow control on tells the interface to send the pause frame when the
interface is overloaded. Leaving flow control off tells the interface to not
to send the pause frame when the interface is overloaded.

Note: The system supports flow control only on ix interfaces. Flow control is
off by default on ix interface types. For other interfaces, the default varies
based on the interface type.

For a port channel:

  * Any flow control setting configured on an interface remains in effect when you add the interface to a port channel.
  * You cannot configure flow control on a port channel.
