multi-chassis loop-detection transmit-interval
Configures the loop-detection transmit interval, which determines the time interval between the transmis-
sion of sucessive loop-detection packets on each VLAN active on the switch.
multi-chassis loop-detection transmit-interval interval
Syntax Definitions
interval Transmit interval, in seconds, which determines the time interval
between the transmission of sucessive loop-detection packets on each
VLAN active on the switch within the range [1 - 10].
Defaults
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 10K
Usage Guidelines
•
This command can be executed only if a valid multi-chassis chassis identifier within the range [1 - 2] is
configured on the switch at that time.
•
It is advised to use greater transmit intervals as the number of VLANs configured on the switch
increases to minimize the amount of bandwidth consumed by the loop-detection control packets. For
example, if someone has thousands of VLANs configured on the switch, one should set the transmit
interval to a number close to or equal to 10 seconds instead of using the default value, i.e. 1 second.
