2.2.8 (Optional) Setting the Holdtime of the Smart Link Switchover
Context
If the Smart Link switchover is performed because of temporary interruption, packet forwarding
and system performance are affected. To address this problem, you can set the holdtime of the
Smart Link switchover. If the interface of the Smart Link group repeatedly alternates between
Up and Down states, the status of the Smart Link group is not immediately changed, but is
changed according to the Up or Down status obtained by an interface of the Smart Link group
until the holdtime expires. In this manner, Smart Link switchover caused by link interruption is
suppressed.
