Note: The devices RS20/30/40, MS20/30, Octopus, MACH 100, RSR
and MACH 1000 do not support flow control in half duplex mode.
8.5.2 Setting the Flow Control
Note: When you are using a redundancy function, you deactivate the flow
control on the participating ports. Default setting: flow control deactivated
globally and activated on all ports.
If the flow control and the redundancy function are active at the same time,
there is a risk of the redundancy failing.
 Select the
Basics:Port Configuration dialog.
In the "Flow Control on" column, you checkmark this port to specify
that flow control is active here. You also activate the global "Flow
Control" switch in the
Switching:Global dialog.
 Select the Switching:Global dialog.
With this dialog you can
X switch off the flow control at all ports or
X switch on the flow control at those ports for which the flow control
is selected in the port configuration table.
