A flow control signal system in a switch and a processing method for a flow control signal system to control the data packets transmitted in network is disclosed. The flow control signal system in a switch includes an empty buffer counter, N port-packet-counters and N alarm units therein. And a processing method is also provided, which includes steps of sending and storing the data packet into a switch, respectively computing the both values of the empty buffer counter and the port-packet-counters, alarming an alarming state for informing a port in the switch will be overfilled with the data packets, triggering one of (N-1) alarm units for stopping other data packets from source ends connected with the another ports in network to be transported to the switch and running the steps disclosed in the present invention to process the data packets until all data packets in the switch have been processed.
