Failure Detection Pair configuration

Use these commands to configure a Failure Detection Pair, which consists of one Link to Monitor (LtM) and one Link to Disable (LtD). When the switch detects a failure on the LtM, it automatically disables the ports in the LtD.

The following table describes the Failure Detection Pair (FDP) configuration commands.

Table 107 Failure Detection Pair Configuration commands

Command

Description

ufd fdp enable

Enables the FDP Parameters.

 

Command mode: Global configuration

no ufd fdp enable

Disables the FDP Parameters.

 

Command mode: Global configuration

Link to Monitor configuration

The following table describes the Link to Monitor (LtM) commands. The LtM can consist of only one uplink port (ports 20-24) or a single trunk containing only uplink ports.

Command

Description

ufd fdp ltm port <port

Adds a port to the LtM. Only uplink ports (20-24) are allowed in the LtM.

number>

Command mode: Global configuration

no ufd fdp ltm port <port

Removes a port from the LtM.

number>

Command mode: Global configuration

ufd fdp ltm trunk <1-12>

Adds a trunk group to the LtM. The LtM trunk group can contain only uplink

 

ports (20-24).

 

Command mode: Global configuration

no ufd fdp ltm trunk <1-12>

Removes a trunk group from the LtM.

 

Command mode: Global configuration

Link to Disable configuration

The following table describes the Link to Disable (LtD) commands. The LtD can consist of any mix of downlink ports (ports 1-16) and trunk groups that contain only downlink ports.

the LtD.

 

Command mode: Global configuration

no ufd fdp ltd port <port

Removes a port from the current LtD group.

Command mode: Global configuration

ufd fdp ltd portchannel

Adds a trunk group to the current LtD group. LtD trunk groups can contain only

<1-12>

downlink ports (1-16).

 

Command mode: Global configuration

no ufd fdp ltd

Removes a trunk group from the current LtD group.

portchannel <1-12>

Command mode: Global configuration

Configuration Dump

The dump program writes the current switch configuration to the terminal screen. To start the dump program, at the prompt, enter:

Switch(config)# show running-config

The configuration is displayed with parameters that have been changed from the default values. The screen display can be captured, edited, and placed in a script file, which can be used to configure other switches. Paste the configuration commands from the script file at the command line prompt of the switch. The active configuration can also be saved or loaded via TFTP.
