Configuring Loopback Detection
Note:
Loopback detection will not be active if Spanning Tree is disabled on the
switch.
Note:
When configured for manual release mode, then a link down/up event will
not release the port from the discarding state.

These parameters are displayed:
◆
Interface

Displays a list of ports or trunks.
◆

◆

(Default: Disabled)
◆
Release Mode
–

release. (Default: Auto)
◆

down the interface. (Default: Block)

If an interface is shut down due to a detected loopback, and the release mode
is set to “Auto,” the selected interface will be automatically enabled when the
shutdown interval has expired.
If an interface is shut down due to a detected loopback, and the release mode
is set to “Manual,” the interface can be re
-enabled using the Release button.
