Configuring the health check timer
To configure the periodic timer value of the cluster MAC’s synchronization, enter the
client-health-check [timer] [value] command. Time values range from 30 through 120 seconds and
60 seconds is the default.
Brocade(config-cluster-TORA)#client-health-check timer 60
Syntax: [no]client-health-check [timer] [value in seconds]
Disabling the health check timer
The no version of the client-health-check timer command sets the timer to the default of 60
seconds.
Brocade(config-cluster-TORA)# no client-health-check timer 60
Syntax: [no] client-health-check [timer] [value in seconds]
Enabling dynamic MAC learning
When the MAC learning mode is set to dynamic and when the remote peer learns that remote client
MAC entries are out of sync, a MDUP INFO message is dynamically sent for that particular client. If
the dynamic learning mode is disabled, the learning mode is set to the default of manual and the
MAC entries must be synchronized manually.
To set the MAC learning mode to dynamic, enter the client-health-check learning-mode command
Brocade(config-cluster-TORA)#client-health-check learning mode dynamic
Syntax: [no] client-health-check learning-mode [dynamic|manual]
Disabling dynamic MAC learning
The no version of the client-health-check learning-mode command sets the client health check
learning mode to the default of manual and disables the dynamic MAC entries’ synchronization.
Brocade(config-cluster-TORA)#no client-health-check learning mode dynamic
Syntax: [no] client-health-check learning-mode [dynamic|manual]
Manually synchronizing MAC entries and MCT peers
When the MAC database becomes asynchronous between the MCT peers, you can manually
synchronize MAC entries specific to various combinations of the cluster, client, and VLANs, as
follows:
• All interface MAC entries
• VLAN interface MAC entries
• ALL MAC entries
• VLAN MAC entries
• Client MAC entries
• VLAND and Client MAC entries
• All Client MAC entries
