5.3 Configuring Backup Port
This section will describe how to configure backup port of uplink set.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set a port to be the backup port:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 interface interface-id Specify the external physical port that you
want to set to be a backup port, and enter
interface configuration mode.
Step 3 port-backup To make this interface to be the backup
port.
Step 4 exit Return to global configuration mode.
Step 5 exit Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6 show port-backup [uplinkSetName] Verify the configuration.
To set a port to be the backup port, use port-backup interface configuration command. To
display the port backup, use show port-backup privileged EXEC command.
In this example, uplink-set up1 is created and interfaces 0/41 and 0/42 are the members of
uplink set up1. Try to set interface 0/42 to be the backup port of the uplink set up1.

(BX900-CB1)(Interface BX900-CB1/0/42)#port-backup
(BX900-CB1)(Interface BX900-CB1/0/41)#interface 0/42
(BX900-CB1)(Interface BX900-CB1/0/42)#exit
(BX900-CB1)(Config)#exit
(BX900-CB1)#show port-backup up1
