Hi,
is it possible to enable Flow Control on this network switch's ports?

On Zyxel website, standard compliance with "IEEE 802.3x flow control" is declared for the entire series of XMG1915 switches.

Thanks

    Cloud mode.

    But even in Nebula interface the options were missing….

    10 minutes ago I changed a global configuration for all my switches within Nebula (totally unrelated to flow control) and now I can see "Flow Control" and "Bandwidth Control" options in ports setup page.

    But only in Nebula. Accessing the switch configuration page directly doesn't show the options.

    Anyway, now my issue is solved ;)

    Hi @Matwolf

    Once your device is managed in Nebula cloud mode, most settings will be hidden in the local GUI. If you've already registered the device to Nebula cloud mode, please manage it via the Nebula Control Center to access the full configuration options. You can find the Flow Control setting under Site-wide > Configure > Switches > Switch ports.

    Yeah, I've seen that, but unfortunately the column "flow control" is missing in my interface…
