Chapter 14: Link-flap Protection Commands

248

Section I: Basic Operations

ENABLE LINK-FLAP

Syntax

enable link-flap [port=

port

|all]

Parameter

port

Specifies the port on which link-flap protection is to be

enabled. You can configure more than one port at a
time with this command. To specify all of the ports,
enter the ALL option.

Description

This command is used to activate link-flap protection on the switch. This
feature protects the switch from unreliable or fluctuating links. The switch
disables a port if a link fluctuates up and down a set number of times
within a defined time period. A disabled port remains disabled until you
enable it again with the management software.

This command is also used to add ports to link-flap protection. This
command is different from the ADD LINK-FLAP command in that the ports
designated in this command replace any ports already assigned to this
feature, and it activates the feature if it is disabled.

Examples

This command activates link-flap protection on the switch:

enable link-flap

This command adds link-flap protection to ports 12 to 17. If ports have
already been designated for the feature, these ports replace the existing
ports:

enable link-flap port=12-17

To enable link-flap protection and to add ports to this feature with the
