Usage Guidelines
Use the
link state group
interface configuration command to configure a port as an upstream or
downstream port for a specific link-state group. If the group number is omitted, the default group is
assumed.
An interface can be an aggregation of ports (an EtherChannel), a single switch port in access or trunk
mode, or a routed port. Each downstream interface can be associated with one or more upstream
interfaces. Upstream interfaces can be bundled together, and each downstream interface can be
associated with a single group consisting of multiple upstream interfaces, referred to as link-state
groups.
The link state of the downstream interfaces are dependent on the link state of the upstream interfaces in
the associated link-state group. If all of the upstream interfaces in a link-state group are in a link-down
state, the associated downstream interfaces are forced into a link-down state. If any one of the upstream
interfaces in the link-state group is in a link-up state, the associated downstream interfaces are allowed
to change to, or remain in, a link-up state.
Follow these guidelines to avoid configuration problems:
•
An interface that is defined as an upstream interface cannot also be defined as a downstream
interface in the same or a different link-state group. The reverse is also true.
•
An interface cannot be a member of more than one link-state group.
•
You can configure only ten link-state groups per switch.
number
(Optional) Specify the link-state group number. The group number can
be 1 to 10.The default is 1.
upstream
Configure a port as an upstream port for a specific link-state group.
downstream
Configure a port as a downstream port for a specific link-state group.
