For an Ethernet interface that belongs to a port group, if you set a traffic suppression threshold for the

Enabling loopback detection on an Ethernet
interface
If a switch receives a packet that it sent, a loop has occurred to the switch. Loops might cause broadcast
storms, which degrade network performance. You can use this feature to detect whether a loop has
occurred.
Depending on whether the receiving interface is the same as the sending interface, loops fall into the
following types:
• Single-port loop—Occurs when an interface receives a packet that it sent out and the receiving
interface is the same as the sending interface, as shown in Figure 3.
• M
ulti-port loop—Occurs when a switch receives a packet that it sent out but the receiving interface
is not the sending interface. For example, as shown in Figure 4, w
hen Port 2 receives the packet sent
out of Port 1, a loop occurs between Port 1 and Port 2, and Port 2 is the looped port.
