configure eaps port
ExtremeWare XOS 11.0 Command Reference Guide 481
configure eaps port
configure eaps <name> [primary | secondary] port <ports>
Description
Configures a node port as the primary or secondary port for the specified EAPS domain.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
Each node on the ring connects through two ring ports. One port must be configured as the primary
port; the other must be configured as the secondary port.
The primary and secondary ports have significance only on a master node. The health-check messages
are sent out the primary port of the master node, and the master node blocks the protected VLANs on
the secondary port.
There is no distinction between the primary and secondary ports on a transit node.
Example
The following command adds port 1 of the module installed in slot 8 to the EAPS domain “eaps_1” as
the primary port:
configure eaps eaps_1 primary port 8:1
