Data Link Layer: Flow Control Stop-and-Wait Data Link ProtocolsShaaban
This is used in the data link layer. Rate based Flow Control These protocols have built in mechanisms to restrict the rate of transmission of data without requiring acknowledgment from the receiver. This is used in the network layer and the transport layer....
2 Active flow control Research in active flow control began in earnest in 1904, as a result of the discovery of the boundary layer by Prandtl [5]. A comprehensive definition of flow control is given by Flatt (1961) [6]:“boundary layer control includes any mechanism or process through whic...
The control plane runs routing and switching protocols and other logic to determine what the forwarding tables and logic in the data plane should be. This process is very complex and cannot be done at line rates as the packets are being processed, and it is for this reason we have seen ...

EOS implements Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) and the Data Center Bridging Capability Exchange (DCBX) protocol to help automate the configuration of Data Center Bridging (DCB) parameters, including the Priority-Based Flow Control (PFC) standard, which allows an end-to-end flow-control feature...
Flow control and flow control auto-negotiation cannot be concurrently configured on Ethernet interfaces. Flow control auto-negotiation takes effect only when configured on interfaces at both ends of a link. When an interface works in half-duplex mode, flow control does not take effect on the ...
Similarly, optimizations within the low-level physical channel flow control protocols benefit most switching techniques. High-speed signaling mechanisms for physical channel flow control affect the interrouter latency. As higher-dimensional networks and wider channels are employed, the number of inputs and...
A network fabric may divide a physical connection into a plurality of VLANs as defined by IEEE 802.1Q. Moreover, many network fabrics use Priority Flow Control to identify and segregate network traffic based on different traffic classes or priorities. Current routing protocols define only eight tra...
