Configuring XMAP
XMAP is active by default. In addition to disabling or enabling XMAP, you can view a list of
adjacent switches or configure the timeout intervals for Hello packet transmission/reception.
Enabling or Disabling XMAP
To display whether or not XMAP is active or inactive, or to activate or deactivate XMAP, enter
the following command:
xmapst
A screen displays similar to the following:
XMAP is currently ACTIVE. (a)ctivate, (d)e-activate : (a) :
Enter a or d to change the current state, or press <Enter> to keep the current value. A message
similar to the following displays:
XMAP is ACTIVE.
To change the state of XMAP without displaying the current state first, enter the command
with the desired value. For example:
xmapst d
A message similar to the following displays:
XMAP is INACTIVE.
Viewing a List of Adjacent Switches
Use the xmapls command to view a list of adjacent switches and their associated MAC
addresses, ports, groups, and IP addresses. For remote switches that stop sending Hello pack-
ets and are connected via a hub, entries may take up to three times the common transmis-
sion interval to age out of this table.
The example display shows three virtual ports on a local
XMAP switch connected to remote
virtual ports on two switches. VPN 3 is connected to a remote switch through a hub.
