(Read-Only)
See the current full duplex flow control setting. Flow control is used to
manage the transmission between two devices as specified by
IEEE 802.3x to prevent receiving ports from being overwhelmed by
frames from transmitting devices. One of the following values is
displayed: Sym, AsymRx, AsymTx, Off, or NA. NA (Not Applicable)
is displayed when the port does not support flow control. Detailed
explanations of the other selections are in Section 5.3, under the Full
Duplex Flow Control description.

See the current half duplex flow control setting. Half duplex flow
control, also known as back pressure, is a collision based flow control
mechanism used in half duplex configurations. The port will display
On, Off, or NA. NA is displayed when the port does not support flow
control.
