Using FN100 Trunking

the FN100’s trunking PDUs are being successfully received at the other end of the link.

•joined — trunking is enabled, the trunking protocol has established a good trunk connection, and the port is actively participating in the trunk group.

•perturbed — trunking is enabled, the trunking protocol has established a good trunk connection, and the port is actively participating in the trunk group; however, the transmission of data packets has been temporarily stopped due to a change in trunk group membership.

•helddown — trunking is enabled, but the trunk connection has been rejected. Indicates that an error has been detected and the link is being held out of service until the error condition clears. After a short time-out period, another attempt will be automatically initiated to establish a good trunk connection.

•broken — the port has been configured for trunking, but is physically non- operational.

Rmt Bridge Id

Displays the MAC address portion of the remote bridge’s bridge ID.

NOTE

The Rmt Bridge Id field can be used to determine which ports belong to which trunk group. Ports in the same trunk group will have the same remote bridge ID.

Rmt IP Address

Displays the remote bridge’s IP address.

Last Error

Displays a value (1-8) corresponding to a reason for failure when the link is in a helddown state. These values and their corresponding reasons for failure include:

•1 — none — no error; the trunking protocol may restart with no error conditions when trunking is activated for a port or when the MIB variable that controls extra trunk groups is modified.

•2 — in-bpdu— a spanning tree BPDU was received, indicating that the connection is not point-to-point, or that the far end of the link does not have trunking enabled.

•3 — multiple-bridges— a different bridge has been connected at the far end of the link, and the trunking protocol will restart.

•4 — ack-lost(acknowledgment lost) — the far end of the link has detected a problem, and the trunking protocol will restart.
