Configuring DLDP authentication You can guard your network against attacks and malicious probes by configuring an appropriate DLDP authentication mode, which can be simple authentication or MD5 authentication. If your network is safe, you can choose not to authenticate. To enable DLDP to operate properly, make sure that DLDP authentication modes and passwords on both sides of a link are the same. To configure DLDP authentication: Step 1. Enter system view. 2. Configure DLDP authentication. Command system-view dldp authentication-mode { none | { md5 | simple } password } Remarks N/A none by default. Resetting DLDP state After DLDP detects a unidirectional link on a port, the port enters Disable state. In this case, DLDP prompts you to shut down the port manually or it shuts down the port automatically depending on the user-defined port shutdown mode. To enable the port to perform DLDP detect again, you can reset the DLDP state of the port by using one of the following methods: • If the port is shut down with the shutdown command manually, run the undo shutdown command on the port. • If DLDP automatically shuts down the port, run the dldp reset command on the port to enable the port to perform DLDP detection again. Alternatively, you can wait for DLDP to automatically enable the port when it detects that the link has been restored to bidirectional. For how to reset the DLDP state by using the dldp reset command, see "Resetting DLDP state in system view" and "Resetting DLDP state in interface view." The DLDP state that the port transits to upon the DLDP state reset operation depends on its physical state. If the port is physically down, it transits to Inactive state; if the port is physically up, it transits to Active state. Resetting DLDP state in system view Resetting DLDP state in system view applies to all ports of the device. To reset DLDP in system view: Step 1. Enter system view. Command system-view 38

Resetting DLDP state
After DLDP detects a unidirectional link on a port, the port enters Disable state. In this case, DLDP prompts
you to shut down the port manually or it shuts down the port automatically depending on the user-defined
port shutdown mode. To enable the port to perform DLDP detect again, you can reset the DLDP state of
the port by using one of the following methods:
•
If the port is shut down with the
shutdown
command manually, run the
undo shutdown
command
on the port.
•
If DLDP automatically shuts down the port, run the
dldp reset
command on the port to enable the
port to perform DLDP detection again. Alternatively, you can wait for DLDP to automatically enable
the port when it detects that the link has been restored to bidirectional. For how to reset the DLDP
state by using the
dldp reset
command, see "
Resetting DLDP state in system view
" and "
Resetting
DLDP state in interface view
."
The DLDP state that the port transits to upon the DLDP state reset operation depends on its physical state.
If the port is physically down, it transits to Inactive state; if the port is physically up, it transits to Active
state.
