fddi frames-per-token
To specify the maximum number of frames that the FDDI interface transmits per token capture, use the fddiframes-per-token command in interface configuration mode. To revert to the default value, use the no form of this command.
Usage Guidelines
Changing the value will increase or decrease the maximum number of frames that the FDDI interface can transmit when it receives a token. Increasing the value does not necessarily mean more frames will be transmitted on each token capture. This is heavily dependent on the traffic load of the specific interface.
When the interface captures a token, it transmits all of the frames that are queued in the interface’s transmit ring, up to a maximum value specified by thefddiframes-per-token command.
If there are no frames ready for transmission, the token is passed on, and no frames are transmitted. If there are less than the fddiframes-per-tokenvaluein the transmit ring, all frames in the transmit ring are transmitted before the token is passed on. If there are more than the fddiframes-per-tokenvalue in the transmit ring, the specified value is transmitted before the token is passed on. The remaining frames in the transmit ring remain queued until the token is captured again.
flowcontrol
To configure a port to send or receive pause frames, use the flowcontrol command in interface configuration mode. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.
flowcontrol { send | receive } { desired | off | on }
no flowcontrol { send | receive } { desired | off | on }
Syntax Description
send
Specifies that a port sends pause frames.
receive
Specifies that a port processes pause frames.
desired
Obtains predictable results regardless of whether a remote port is set to on, off, or desired.
off
Prevents a local port from receiving and processing pause frames from remote ports or from sending pause frames to remote ports.
on
Enables a local port to receive and process pause frames from remote ports or send pause frames to remote ports.
Command Default
Flow control is disabled.
Flow-control defaults depend upon port speed. The defaults are as follows:
- Gigabit Ethernet ports default to off for receive and desired for send.
- Fast Ethernet ports default to off for receive and on for send.
- On the 24-port 100BASE-FX and 48-port 10/100 BASE-TX RJ-45 modules, the default is off for receive and off for send.
- You cannot configure how WS-X6502-10GE 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports respond to pause frames. WS-X6502-10GE 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports are permanently configured to respond to pause frames.

12.2(33)SRA
This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SCB
This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB.
Usage Guidelines
The send and desired keywords are supported on Gigabit Ethernet ports only.
Pause frames are special packets that signal a source to stop sending frames for a specific period of time because the buffers are full.
Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Catalyst 6500 series switches and on the Cisco 7600 series routers use flow control to inhibit the transmission of packets to the port for a period of time; other Ethernet ports use flow control to respond to flow-control requests.
If a Gigabit Ethernet port receive buffer becomes full, the port transmits a “pause” packet that tells remote ports to delay sending more packets for a specified period of time. All Ethernet ports (1000 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 10 Mbps) can receive and act upon “pause” packets from other devices.
You can configure non-Gigabit Ethernet ports to ignore received pause frames (disable) or to react to them (enable).
When used with the receivekeyword, the on and desired keywords have the same result.
All the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Catalyst 6500 series switches and the Cisco 7600 series routers can receive and process pause frames from remote devices.
To obtain predictable results, follow these guidelines:
- Use sendon only when remote ports are set to receiveon or receivedesired.
- Use sendoff only when remote ports are set to receiveoff or receivedesired.
- Use receiveon only when remote ports are set to sendon or senddesired.
- Use sendoff only when remote ports are set to receiveoff or receivedesired.
Examples
These examples show how to configure the local port to not support any level of flow control by the remote port:

To specify full-duplex mode on full-duplex single-mode and multimode port adapters, use the full-duplexcommand in interface configuration mode. To restore the default half-duplex mode, use the no form of this command.

12.2SX
This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command if the equipment on the other end is capable of full-duplex mode.
This command specifies full-duplex mode on full-duplex single-mode and multimode port adapters available on the following networking devices:
- Cisco 7200 series routers
- Second-generation Versatile Interface Processors (VIP2s) in Cisco 7500 series routers
- FEIP ports
- Serial interface ports that uses bisynchronous tunneling
Refer to the CiscoProductCatalog for hardware compatibility information and for specific model numbers of port adapters.
To enable half-duplex mode, use the nofull-duplex or half-duplex command.
NoteFor the Cisco AS5300, the duplexfull| halfauto} command replaces the full-duplex and half-duplex commands. You will get the following error messages if you try to use the full-duplex and half-duplex commands on a Cisco AS5300: Router(config)# interfacefastethernet0 Router(config-if)# full-duplex Please use duplex command to configure duplex mode Router(config-if)# Router(config-if)# half-duplex Please use duplex command to configure duplex mode
Support for This Command
Use the question mark (?) command to find out which port adapters support this command. If the interface does not support full-duplex, an informational message displayed, and no changes are made to the interface. To determine if the interface supports full-duplex, use the showinterfacescommand. For example, the following message is displayed if the interface does not support full-duplex:
% interface does not support full-duplex.Use on FDDI
Full-duplex on the FDDI full-duplex port adapters allows an FDDI ring with exactly two stations to transform the ring into a full-duplex, point-to-point topology. For the interface to operate in full-duplex mode, there must be only two stations on the ring, the two stations must be capable of operating in full-duplex mode, and both stations must complete a full-duplex autoconfiguration protocol. There is no FDDI token in full-duplex mode. Refer to the CiscoProductCatalog for specific model numbers of port adapters.
Full-duplex autoconfiguration protocol allows an FDDI station to dynamically and automatically operate in either half-duplex (or ring) or full-duplex mode, and ensures that the stations fall back to ring mode when a configuration change occurs, such as a third station joining the ring.
After booting the router, the FDDI stations begin operation in half-duplex mode. While the station performs the full-duplex autoconfiguration protocol, the station continues to provide data-link services to its users. Under normal conditions, the transition between half-duplex mode and full-duplex mode is transparent to the data-link users. The data-link services provided by full-duplex mode are functionally the same as the services provided by half-duplex mode.
If you change the full-duplex configuration (for example, from disabled to enabled) on supported interfaces, the interface resets.
Cisco 10000 Series Router
The Fast Ethernet line card responds only to 802.3x pause frames from another device when it autonegotiates the duplex mode (the default). The line card does not support 802.3x flow control when you manually set half-duplex or full-duplex mode.
