• Ports advertise their unidirectional link detection capability using OAMPDUs, so all connected devices
must support O AM as well as ZULD. You need to enable OAM on the Switch by going to Adva nc e d
Applic a tio n > O AM > C o nfig ura tio n and selecting Ac tive . OAM must be enabled on other connected
devices too. If OAM is not enabled initially, ZULD will not work.
• If OAM is enabled initially and later disabled on one end of a link, the link will be unidirectional as that
end cannot send OAMPDUs.
• OAM discovery, the sending of OAMPDUs to other ports, is initiated by an active port.
• When ZULD detects a unidirectional link, it sends a syslog and SNMP trap and may shut down the
affected port (Ag g re ssive Mode ).
• If a port on the Switch is shut down by ZULD, and you want to recover it, then do one of the following:
•Go to Ba sic Se tting > Po rt Se tup. Clear Ac tive and click Apply. Then select Ac tive and click Apply
again.
•Go to Adva nc e d Applic a tio n > Errdisa ble > Errdisa ble Re c o ve ry and set the interval for ZULD. After
the interval expires, the closed ports will become active and start receiving packets again.
• Use the command port no inactive.
• Refer to the ZULD logs to see when a unidirectional link is detected and when it is recovered to a
bidirectional link.
