2.2.3 Link Loss Forwarding

When LLF is enabled, a fault on one side of the 9161 propagates to the other side to notify that
device and stops signal transmission (brings down the link) (see Figure 2-2). Set the LLF propa-
gation to 10G1 to 10G2, 10G2 to 10G1, or both directions. Set this in the User Interface.
