Configuration Guidelines
These are the UDLD configuration guidelines:
•
UDLD is not supported on ATM ports.
•
A UDLD-capable port also cannot detect a unidirectional link if it is connected to a
UDLD-incapable port of another switch.
•
When configuring the mode (normal or aggressive), make sure that the same mode is configured on
both sides of the link.
