Description

Usage Guidelines
The shared port on one end of the common link must be configured to be the controller. This is the end
responsible for blocking ports when the common link fails thereby preventing the superloop.
The shared port on the other end of the common link must be configured to be the partner. This end
does not participate in any form of blocking. It is responsible only for sending and receiving health-
check messages.
Example
The following command configures the shared port 1:1 to be the controller.
configure eaps shared-port 1:1 mode controller
