Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate a dynamic control of a pause frame setting at a network device. A network node may monitor for and detect a link or speed change occurring at an interface. When a link or speed change is detected, the network node may take an inventory of one or more links at an associated switch. If at least one of the one or more links are high speed links, the network node may disable the output of pause frames from the network node. If none of the one or more links are high speed links, the network node may enable the output of pause frames from the network node.
