switchport atmf-arealink remote-area
Overview
This command enables you to configure a port or aggregator to be an AMF
arealink. AMF arealinks are designed to operate between two nodes in different
areas in an AMF network.
Use the
no
variant of this command to remove any AMF-arealink that may exist for
the selected port or aggregated link.
This command is only available on AMF controllers and master nodes.
Syntax
switchport atmf-arealink remote-area <
area-name
> vlan <
2-4094
>
no switchport atmf-arealink
Default
By default, no arealinks are configured
Mode
Interface Configuration
Usage
Run this command on the port or aggregator at both ends of the link.
Each area must have the area-name configured, and the same area password must
exist on both ends of the link.
Running this command will automatically place the port or static aggregator into
trunk mode (i.e. switchport mode trunk) and will synchronize the area information
stored on the two nodes.
You can configure multiple arealinks between two area nodes, but only one
arealink at any time will be in use. All other arealinks will block information, to
prevent network storms.
Example
To make a switchport 1.2.1 an arealink to the
Auckland
area on VLAN 6, use the
following commands
controller-1#
configure terminal
controller-1(config)#
interface port1.2.1
controller-1(config-if)#
switchport atmf-arealink remote-area
Auckland vlan 6
