Figure 30 TC Snooping application scenario

To avoid traffic interruption, you can enable TC Snooping on the IRF fabric. After receiving a TC-BPDU

through a port, the IRF fabric updates MAC address table and ARP table entries associated with the

port's VLAN. In this way, TC Snooping prevents topology change from interrupting traffic forwarding in
the network. For more information about the MAC address table and the ARP table, see "Configuring the

MAC address table" and Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you configure TC Snooping, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
