Operation Manual – Port Basic Configuration
H3C S3600 Series Ethernet Switches-Release 1510 Chapter 1 Port Basic Configuration
1-9
After you enable loopback detection on Ethernet ports, the switch can monitor if
external loopback occurs on them. If there is a loopback port found, the switch will put it
under control.
z If loopback is found on an access port, the system disables the port, sends a Trap
message to the client and removes the corresponding MAC forwarding entry.
z If loopback is found on a trunk or hybrid port, the system sends a Trap message to
the client. When the loopback port control function is enabled on these ports, the
system disables the port, sends a Trap message to the client and removes the
corresponding MAC forwarding entry.
