LINK
switchport atmf-link
Overview
This command enables you to configure a port or aggregator to be an AMF
up/down link. Running this command will automatically place the port or
aggregator into trunk mode.
Use the
no
variant of this command to remove any AMF-link that may exist for the
selected port or aggregated link.
Syntax
switchport atmf-link
no switchport atmf-link
Mode
Interface Configuration for a switchport, a static aggregator or a dynamic channel
group.
Usage
Up/down links and virtual links interconnect domains in a vertical hierarchy, with
the highest domain being the core domain. In effect, they form a tree of
interconnected AMF domains. This tree must be loop-free. Therefore, you must
configure your links so that no rings are formed only from up/down links and/or
virtual links.
Within each domain, cross-links between AMF nodes define those nodes as
siblings within the same domain. You can form rings by combining cross-links with
up/down links and/or virtual links, as long as each AMF domain links upwards to
only a single parent domain. Each domain may link downwards to multiple child
domains.
For AMF links, we recommend not using VCStack ports that are configured as
network ports. During AMF recovery, these ports revert to their default state of
being VCStack ports, so AMF cannot use them for auto-recovery. We recommend
using standard network ports instead of VCStack ports for AMF links, so you can
take advantage of AMF recovery.
Example
To make a switchport 1.0.1 an AMF up/down link, use the following commands:
Node_1#
configure terminal
Node_1(config)#
interface port1.0.1
Node_1(config-if)#
switchport atmf-link
