Number of enabled ports: 2

Interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1

DLDP port state: Unidirectional

Number of the port’s neighbors: 0 (Maximum number ever detected: 1)

Interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2

DLDP port state: Unidirectional

Number of the port’s neighbors: 0 (Maximum number ever detected: 1)

The output shows that the DLDP port status of both Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 and
Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 is unidirectional, which indicates that DLDP detects unidirectional links

on them and automatically shuts down the two ports.
The unidirectional links are caused by cross-connected fibers. Correct the fiber connections. As a
result, the ports shut down by DLDP automatically recover, and Device A displays the following log

information:

<DeviceA>%Jul 11 17:42:57:709 2013 DeviceA IFNET/3/PHY_UPDOWN:

Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1 link status is DOWN.

%Jul 11 17:42:58:603 2013 DeviceA IFNET/3/PHY_UPDOWN: Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2 link

status is DOWN.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:342 2013 DeviceA IFNET/3/PHY_UPDOWN: Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1 link

status is UP.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:343 2013 DeviceA DLDP/6/DLDP_NEIGHBOR_CONFIRMED: A neighbor was

confirmed on interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1. The neighbor's system MAC is

0023-8956-3600, and the port index is 1.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:344 2013 DeviceA DLDP/6/DLDP_LINK_BIDIRECTIONAL: DLDP detected a

bidirectional link on interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:353 2013 DeviceA IFNET/5/LINK_UPDOWN: Line protocol on the interface

Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1 is UP.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:357 2013 DeviceA IFNET/3/PHY_UPDOWN: Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2 link

status is UP.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:362 2013 DeviceA DLDP/6/DLDP_NEIGHBOR_CONFIRMED: A neighbor was

confirmed on interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2. The neighbor's system MAC is

0023-8956-3600, and the port index is 2.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:362 2013 DeviceA DLDP/6/DLDP_LINK_BIDIRECTIONAL: DLDP detected a

bidirectional link on interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2.

%Jul 11 17:43:02:368 2013 DeviceA IFNET/5/LINK_UPDOWN: Line protocol on the interface

Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/2 is UP.

The output shows that the port status and link status of both Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 and
Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 are now up and their DLDP neighbors are determined.

Manually shutting down unidirectional links

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 11

, Device A and Device B are connected with two fiber pairs.

Configure DLDP to detect unidirectional links. When a unidirectional link is detected, the administrator

must manually shut down the port.
