Chapter13 Configuring LRE Configuring LRE Ports
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign a margin to a speci fic LRE po rt:
To return to the default values, use the no margin {downstream | upstream} interface configuration
command.
Note The margin command is effective with any profile, but only with rate selection and only when a link is
being activated.
Configuring LRE Link Persistence
If the LRE link shuts down and is automatically re-enabled quickly, the switch configuration might
change. For example, the dynamic MAC addresses are removed from the MAC address table. You can
use the link persistence feature to configure a delay duration on the Catal yst 295 0 LRE s wi tch of up to
20 seconds before link failure is reported.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the delay duration on a specific LR E port:
To return to the default value, use the no persistence interface configuration command.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 interface interface-id Enter the number of the LRE port to be configured, and enter
interface configuration mode.
Step3 margin {downstream value | upstream value} Enter the downstream or upst ream ma rgin value (in dB). For the
values, see Table 13-6 on page13-16, Table 13-7 on page 13-17,
Table13-8 on pag e 13-18, and Table 13-9 on page 13-18.
Step4 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step5 show controllers lre profile details Verify the change.
Step6 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 interface interface-id Specify the LRE port to be configured, and enter interface
configuration mode.
Step3 persistence delay Enter the length of time (in seconds) for the delay durati on. T he
default is 3 seconds. The range is 1 to 20 seconds.
Step4 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step5 show controllers lre status persistence Verify the change.
Step6 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
