hi,I'm interested in your project. I want to know how pause frame come to upstream device(NIC). Pause frame is transmittid based L2.Did you use the Global routing?

bobzhuyb commented 7 years ago

No, there is nothing about L3 routing. It's on L2 point-to-point link, which means after one side sends it out, the other side will receive it..
