Action configured to be executed in the interface if a loop is
detected, which can be Shutdown, Log and SLog;
o

the network is enabled or not;
o
Loops, which represents total loops detected at the port since
function was enabled;
o
Status, which represents loop detection status at a given port.
Allowed values are Up and Down, where Up represents link up and
Down represents link down. If a link is disabled because of loop
detected, the timestamp of the last loop detected is represented at
the following column;
o
Time of Last Loop, which represents the timestamp of the last
detected loop. Timestamp shown in this column is based on
system’s internal clock.
