Setting Up a Redundant Gigabit Uplink Port

Summit 200 Series Switch Installation and User Guide

95

On a stacked configuration, the monitored port, VLAN, or virtual port that is being monitored, must be
located on the same Summit 200-24 or Summit 200-48 switch that has the mirror port.

Port-Mirroring Commands

Switch port-mirroring commands are described in Table 28.

Port-Mirroring Example

The following example selects port 3 as the mirror port and sends all traffic coming into or out of the
switch on port 1 to the mirror port:

enable mirroring to port 3 tagged

config mirroring add port 1

Setting Up a Redundant Gigabit Uplink Port

The Summit 200 supports an automatic failover from an active fiber port to a copper back up or from an
active copper port to a fiber port. If one of the uplink connections fails, then the Summit 200 uplink
connection automatically fails over to the second connection. On the Summit 200-24, ports 25 and 26 are
the Gigabit Ethernet ports that have the redundant PHY interfaces. On the Summit 200-48, it is ports 49
and 50. Each port has one mini-GBIC and 1000BASE-T connection.

To set up a redundant link on either port 25 or on port 49, connect the active fibre and 1000BASE-T
links to both the RJ-45 and mini-GBIC interfaces of that port. For the failover speeds and additional
rules for each model, see “Summit 200-24 Switch Uplink Redundancy” on page 17 and “Summit 200-48
Switch Uplink Redundancy” on page 21.

Extreme Discovery Protocol

The Extreme Discovery Protocol (EDP) is used to gather information about neighbor Extreme Networks
switches. EDP is used to by the switches to exchange topology information. Information communicated
using EDP includes:

Switch MAC address (switch ID).

Switch software version information.

Switch VLAN-IP information.
