ESRP Commands
configure elrp-client periodic
configure elrp-client periodic <vlan name> timeout <interval> ports
<port-mask> action [log | trap | log-and-trap]
Description
Starts periodic Extreme Loop Recovery Protocol (ELRP) packet transmission on the specified ports of
the VLAN using the specified interval.
Syntax Description
Default
None.
Usage Guidelines
This command starts periodic ELRP packet transmission on the specified ports of the VLAN using the
specified interval. If any of these transmitted packets is returned, indicating loopback detection, the
ELRP client can perform a configured action such as logging a message in the system log file and/or
sending a trap to the SNMP manager.
Use the
configure elrp-client one-shot
command to configure non-periodic, one-time
transmission of ELRP packets.
The ELRP client must be enabled globally in order for it to work on any VLANs. Use the
enable
elrp-client
command to globally enable the ELRP client.
The ELRP client can be disabled globally so that none of the ELRP VLAN configurations take effect. Use
the
disable elrp-client
command to globally disable the ELRP client.
