Configuration:
==============
C3560 Software (C3560-IPBASEK9-M), Version 12.2(25)SEB1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
interface GigabitEthernet0/3
description R14 Trunk 50,[100],102,105,199

switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate
flowcontrol receive on
end
connected to
============
C2950 Software (C2950-I6K2L2Q4-M), Version 12.1(22)EA6, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
description R01 Trunk 50,[100],102,105,199
...
switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate
flowcontrol receive on
flowcontrol send on
end
Port Gi0/1 on 2950 has sometimes no buffer and drops packets:
============================================================
GigabitEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
...
Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is RJ45
input flow-control is on, output flow-control is on
...
193421146 packets input, 2844802437 bytes, 2637 no buffer
0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 2637 ignored
but it never sends a pause packet:

What am I doing wrong? I have realized that this data overload is caused by
server with 1Gbs interface pushing data to server with 100 Mbs interface.
I vould expect it should not affect a trunk with flowcontrol on.
