ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1273
configure esrp ports restart
configure esrp ports <ports> restart
Description
Configures ESRP to restart ports if there is a state change and the downstream switch is from another
vendor.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
If an ESRP domain becomes a slave, ESRP disconnects member ports that have port restart enabled. The
disconnection of these ports causes downstream devices to remove the ports from their FDB tables.
After 3 seconds the ports re-establish connection with the ESRP-enabled device. This feature allows you
to use ESRP in networks that include equipment from other vendors.
If switch becomes a slave, ESRP disconnects the physical links of member ports that have port restart
enabled.
An ESRP restart port cannot be a mirroring port, software-controlled redundant port, or Netlogin port.
Example
The following command enables port restart for ports 7-9 in slot 3 on the ESRP master domain:
configure esrp port 3:7-3:9 restart
