You can also enter the debugging command in User View to debug the resilient
ARP function.
Resilient ARP
Configuration Example
Networking Requirement
There are four units, numbered respectively Unit 1 through Unit 4, in the XRN
network. Unit 1 and Unit 3 are connected to the Switch in link aggregation mode.
Resilient ARP runs on the XRN fabric to avoid packet forwarding problems
between the Switch and fabric when the network has two Layer 3 units, if the
links between unit 1 and unit 3, between unit 2 and unit 4 are disconnected. MD5
authentication is enabled for the sake of security. The ports of Unit 1 and Unit 3,
connecting the Switch, belong to VLAN 2.
