shellFlowControlDisable

Disables XON/XOFF flow control on the console serial ports.

Synopsis shellflowcontroldisable

Description Use this command to disable XON/XOFF flow control on the console serial ports. Flow control is

disabled by default.

Because this command changes the flow control on the console serial port, it must be executed

from a session that is logged in from the console serial port. This command cannot run from a

telnet session.

This setting saves in the configuration database; therefore, persistent across reboots and power

cycles.

On dual control processor (CP) systems, a reboot on the standby CP is required for this command to

take effect. No action is required on the active CP.

The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place.

Operands none

Examples To disable flow control:

switch:admin> shellflowcontroldisable
