Flow Control set on none but Frames pause increases

Mon Apr 16, 2018 5:10 pm

Hello All,

why if I set on port FC to none I continue to see the count of RX pause frames increase ? on that port is connected an AF5X in mid span.

Thank you in advance.

Just because you turn Flow Control OFF on the switch port does not mean the AF may still not send Pause Frames (even though it should not) and if the switch receives one it will record that it received it even though it will not act on it.

UBNT has been struggling with FC for awhile.

I would turn Flow Control OFF on the AF radio.
