DIS-200G Series Industrial Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switch Loopback Detection The Loopback Detection (LBD) function is used to detect the loop created by a specific port. This feature is used to temporarily shut down a port on the Switch when a CTP (Configuration Testing Protocol) packet has been looped back to the Switch. When the Switch detects CTP packets received from a port, this signifies a loop on the network. The Switch will automatically block the port and send an alert to the administrator. The Loopback Detection function can be implemented on a range of ports at a time. The user may enable or disable this function using the drop-down menu. To view the following window, click L2 Features > Loopback Detection, as shown below: Figure 6-47 Loopback Detection window The fields that can be configured for Loopback Detection Global Settings are described below: Parameter Loopback Detection Time Interval Recover Time Loopback Detection Trap Description Select to enable or disable loopback detection. The default is Disabled. Enter the interval in seconds that the device will transmit all the CTP (Configuration Test Protocol) packets to detect a loop-back event.The valid range is from 1 to 32767 seconds. The default setting is 10 seconds. Enter the interval in seconds that the port will re-open if the port is in loop state. The valid range is from 60 to 1000000 seconds. The value 0 will block port forever until the switch next boot up. The default setting is 60 seconds. Select to enable or disable the loopback detection trap state. Click the Apply button to accept the changes made. The fields that can be configured for Loopback Detection Port Settings are described below: Parameter From Port / To Port State Description Select the appropriate port range used for the configuration here. Select this option to enable or disable the state of the port. Click the Apply button to accept the changes made. 77
