unblocks the interface and starts detection. If MAC address flapping is detected again within 20
seconds, the system blocks the interface. This process repeats for a specified number of times.
If MAC address flapping persists, the interface is permanently blocked.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
reset loop-detect eth-loop vlan vlan-id { all | interface { interface-type
interface-number } | mac-address mac-address }
The specified interface or MAC address is unblocked.
Before using the reset loop-detect eth-loop command, run the display loop-detect eth-loop
command to check the blocked interface or MAC address.

7.10.4 Checking the Configuration
After configuring MAC address flapping detection, use the following commands to verify the
configuration and view information about permanent interfaces and MAC addresses.
Procedure
Step 1 Run the display loop-detect eth-loop [ vlan vlan-id ] command to check information about
MAC address flapping detection on a VLAN.

7.11 Configuring the S7700 to Discard Packets with an All-0
MAC Address
You can configure the S7700 to discard packets with an all-0 source or destination MAC address.
Applicable Environment
A faulty network device may send packets with an all-0 source or destination MAC address to
the S7700. You can configure the S7700 to discard such packets and send a trap to the network
management system (NMS). You can locate the faulty device according to the trap message.
Pre-configuration Tasks
l Powering on the S7700 and ensuring that it functions properly
Data Preparation
None.
