Each resource defines a rule (filter) for the incoming frame. If the rule is met, the frame is affected (as set by the ebs limit action parameter). If the incoming frame doesn't meet any rule, it is not affected by pirl. The frame is accepted and forwarded further to the switch engine. Port name ide...

Flow control gets de-asserted when the ingress rate resource has enough room to accept at least one frame of size specified by the cbs limit.
