[802.3_YANG] Questions on pause frames and priority-flow-control
Hi,
In the process of trying to figure out the best way to model
auto-negotiation, flow control, and pfc; I have a few questions that I
need an 802.3 expert to help me with please :-)
1. Can auto-negotiation negotiate pfc settings, or only PAUSE frame
based fc? I see that some Cisco devices seem to be able to negotiate
pfc, but my reading of 802.3-2015 seems to indicate that auto-neg only
discusses pause based fc.
2. Should pfc frames be counted in the ingress/egress PAUSE frame
counters? Or are PAUSE vs PFC counters entirely separate?
3. Does MPCP interoperate with flow-control? Or if MPCP is in play then
does that mean that PAUSE and PFC are both off?
Thanks,
Rob
