Configuring the Virtual Connect domain using the CLI 83
When a VC-Enet uplink that was previously in standby mode becomes active, it can take several minutes
for external Ethernet switches to recognize that the c-Class server blades can now be reached on this
newly-active connection. Enabling Fast MAC Cache Failover causes Virtual Connect to transmit Ethernet
packets on newly-active links, which enables the external Ethernet switches to identify the new connection
(and update their MAC caches appropriately.) This transmission sequence repeats a few times at the
MAC refresh interval (5 seconds recommended) and completes in about 1 minute.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to set switches to allow MAC addresses to move from one port to
another without waiting for an expiration period or causing a lock out.
