Excluding a port from the shutdown action upon detection of multi-active collision

Page 30 highlights

Step 6. Assign the port or the range of ports to the ARP MAD VLAN. Command • Assign the port to the VLAN as an access port: port access vlan vlan-id • Assign the port to the VLAN as a trunk port: port trunk permit vlan vlan-id • Assign the port to the VLAN as a hybrid port: port hybrid vlan vlan-id { tagged | untagged } Remarks Choose one command depending on the port type. ARP MAD has no requirement for the link type. The default link type of a port is access. 7. Return to system view. quit N/A 8. Enter VLAN interface view. interface vlan-interface interface-number N/A 9. Assign the interface an IP address. ip address ip-address { mask | mask-length } By default, no IP address is assigned to any VLAN interface. 10. Enable ARP MAD. mad arp enable By default, ARP MAD is disabled. Excluding a port from the shutdown action upon detection of multi-active collision CAUTION: Excluding a VLAN interface and its Layer 2 ports from the shutdown action introduces IP collision risks because the VLAN interface might be active on both the IRF fabric in Active state and the IRF fabric in Recovery state. When the IRF fabric transits to the Recovery state, all ports but the console and physical IRF ports by default automatically shut down. You can exclude a port from the shutdown action for management or other special purposes. For example: • Exclude a port from the shutdown action, so you can Telnet to the port for managing the switch. • Exclude a VLAN interface and its Layer 2 ports from the shutdown action, so you can log in through the VLAN interface. To configure a port to not shut down when the IRF fabric transits to the recovery state: Step 1. Enter system view. Command system-view 2. Configure a port to not shut down when the IRF fabric mad exclude interface interface-type transits to the Recovery state. interface-number Remarks N/A By default, when an IRF fabric transits to the Recovery state, all its network ports but the IRF physical ports and console port are shut down. 26

Excluding a port from the shutdown action upon detection of
multi-active collision
CAUTION:
Excluding a VLAN interface and its Layer 2 ports from the shutdown action introduces IP collision risks
because the VLAN interface might be active on both the IRF fabric in Active state and the IRF fabric in
Recovery state.
When the IRF fabric transits to the Recovery state, all ports but the console and physical IRF ports by
default automatically shut down.
You can exclude a port from the shutdown action for management or other special purposes. For
example:
Exclude a port from the shutdown action, so you can Telnet to the port for managing the switch.
Exclude a VLAN interface and its Layer 2 ports from the shutdown action, so you can log in through
the VLAN interface.
