Can a switch generate PFC Pause?

[Danial_Jalil]

I want my EXOS 670 switch to generate pause frames when it receives certain traffic or when its buffer is full. currently when i send the traffic from both ends it passes by without dropping. All packets sent are received. How to make one end stop sending one the other end is sending packets? in other words how to enable PFC on switch .

Hi Danial, I don't see an option to configure a time value for PFC.

To have the PFC being generated by the switch, the frames with priority 3 (in your case) should be congested.

Could you please check if one of the following commands shows any increment and share the results:

show port congestion
show port qosmonitor
show port qosmonitor congestion

Can I give a timer value for PFC inside the switch?

yes, but how to check the buffers in this code?
