ethtool properties : "Advertised pause frame use: No "
Hi,
When we apply " ethtool ethx" command , we get some properties related to that particular NIC.
I wanted to know what is the "Advertised pause frame use: No "
what are its functions ?
Does it has any effect when there is heavy network traffic ?
what its default value ? yes or no
How we can change this parameter ?

Hello
It is for flow control, to control congestion. The ethtool manual page has some command examples. For example, to list the parameters:
ethtool -a <device>
I think you cannot change those values when you have autoneg on.
The Deployment Guide has some command options Ethtool
