Chapter 34 ULPP Configuration

34.1 Introduction to ULPP

Each ULPP group has two uplink ports, they are master port and slave port. The port may be a

physical port or a port channel. The member ports of ULPP group have three states:

Forwarding, Standby, Down. Normally, only one port at the forwarding state, the other port is

blocked at the Standby state. When the master port has the link problem, the master port

becomes down state, and the slave port is siwthed to forwarding state.

The using scene of ULPP

The above figure uses the double-uplink network, this is the typical application scene of ULPP.

SwitchA goes up to SwitchD through SwitchB and SwitchC, port A1 and port A2 are the uplink

ports. SwitchA configures ULPP, thereinto port A1 is set as the master port, port A2 is set as

the slave port. When port A1 at forwarding state has the problem, switch the uplink at once,

port A2 turns into forwarding state. After this, when recovering the master port, if the

preemption mode is not configured, port A2 keeps the Forwarding state, port A1 turns into the

Standby state.

After the preemption mode is enabled, so as to the master port preempts the slave port when it

recovered from the problem. For avoiding the frequent uplink switch caused by the abnormity

problem, the preemption delay mechanism is imported, and it needs to wait for some times

before the master port preempt the slave port. For keeping the continuance of the flows, the

master port does not process to preempt by default, but turns into the Standby state.

When configuring ULPP, it needs to specify the VLAN which is protected by this ULPP group
