Quick Steps for Configuring UDLD
1 To enable the UDLD protocol on a switch, use the udld command. For example:
-> udld enable
2 To enable the UDLD protocol on a port, use the udld port command by entering udld port, followed
by the slot and port number, and enable. For example:
-> udld port 1/6 enable
3 Configure the operational mode of UDLD by entering udld port, followed by the slot and port
number, mode, and the operational mode. For example:
-> udld port 1/6 mode aggressive
4 Configure the probe-message advertisement timer on port 6 of slot 1 as 17 seconds using the following
command:
-> udld port 1/6 probe-timer 17
Note. Optional. Verify the UDLD global configuration by entering the show udld configuration
command or verify the UDLD configuration on a port by entering the show udld configuration port
command. For example:
-> show udld configuration
Global UDLD Status : Disabled
-> show udld configuration port 1/6
Global UDLD Status: enabled
Port UDLD Status: enabled
Port UDLD State: bidirectional
UDLD Op-Mode: normal
Probe Timer (Sec): 20,
Echo-Wait Timer (Sec): 10
To verify the UDLD statistics of a port, use the show udld statistics port command. For example:
-> show udld statistics port 1/42
