[nsp] 802.3x flow control in Catalyst 3550

[Voll, Scott]

Is the Gbic working at all?  What kind of Gbic do you have?  Is it
Cisco?

I have a 3550 and Asante Gbics don't work in ours.  Our Cisco Engineer
said that Cisco is writing into their code to only use Cisco Cert.
Gbics.

Don't know if that is your problem..... But I thought I would through it
out there.

I'm wondering how one should decipher the following command output:

GigabitEthernet0/4 is up, line protocol is up
  Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is 000b.5f7a.0b84 (bia
000b.5f7a.0b84)
  Description: RTR1
  MTU 1530 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,
     reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
  Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
  Keepalive set (10 sec)
  Full-duplex mode, link type is force-up, media type is SX
  output flow-control is unsupported, input flow-control is unsupported,
1000Mb/s
  input flow-control is on, output flow-control is on

send/receive flow control is enabled on this port. What is the
"flow-control is unsupported" stuff about? Is the second line the
negotiated parameters?

Thanks!
