Optional
Disabled by default.

1 second by default.

control VLAN

Optional
By default, VLAN 1 is
used for flush update.
z The protected-vlan command configures protected VLANs for a smart link group by referencing
MSTIs. To view VLAN-to-MSTI mappings, use the display stp region-configuration command.
For VLAN-to-MSTI mapping configuration, refer to MSTP Configuration in the Access Volume.
z The preemption delay configuration takes effect only after preemption mode is enabled.
z The protected VLANs configured for a smart link group must be different from those configured for
any other smart link group.
z Make sure that the configured control VLANs are existing VLANs, and you must assign the smart
link group member ports to the control VLANs.
z Do not remove the control VLANs. Otherwise, flush messages cannot be sent properly.
Smart Link Device Configuration Example
Network requirements
z Create smart link group 1.
z The protected VLANs of smart link group 1 are mapped to MSTI 0 through 8.
z Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 as the master port of the smart link group, and GigabitEthernet
1/0/2 as the slave port.
