manually bring up the port. If the network performance is low, the device is busy, or the CPU
usage is high, use this mode to prevent normal links from being shut down because of false
unidirectional link reports.
On a port with both remote OAM loopback and DLDP enabled, if the port shutdown mode is auto
mode, the port will be shut down by DLDP when it receives a packet sent by itself. This causes
remote OAM loopback failure. To prevent this, set the port shutdown mode to manual mode. For
more information about Ethernet OAM, see "Configuring Ethernet OAM."

Configuring DLDP authentication
You can guard your network against attacks and malicious probes by configuring an appropriate
DLDP authentication mode, which can be plain text authentication or MD5 authentication. If your
network is safe, you can choose not to authenticate.
To configure DLDP authentication:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2. Configure a DLDP
authentication mode.
dldp authentication-mode
{
md5
|
none
|
simple
}
The default authentication mode
is
none
.
3. Configure the password for
DLDP authentication.
dldp authentication-password
{
cipher
cipher |
simple
simple }
By default, no password is
configured for DLDP
authentication.
If you do not configure the
authentication password after you
configure the authentication
mode, the authentication mode is
none
no matter which
authentication mode you
configure.
Displaying and maintaining DLDP
Execute display commands in any view and the reset command in user view.
Task Command

port.
