Configuring UDLD
Default UDLD Configuration
Table 22-1 shows the default UDLD configuration.
Configuration Guidelines
These are the UDLD configuration guidelines:
A UDLD-capable interface also cannot detect a unidirectional link if it is connected to a
UDLD-incapable port of another switch.
When configuring the mode (normal or aggressive), make sure that the same mode is configured on
both sides of the link.
Caution Loop guard works only on point-to-point links. We recommend that each end of the link has a directly
connected device that is running STP.
