Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps on the switch that has the segment primary edge
port to manually trigger VLAN load balancing on a segment:

Configuring SNMP Traps for REP

You can configure the switch to send REP-specific traps to notify the SNMP server of link operational
status changes and port role changes. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to
configure REP traps:
To remove the trap, enter the no snmp mib rep trap-rate global configuration command.
