Loopback Detection Settings
The Loopback Detection (LBD) function is used to detect the loop created by a specific port. This feature is used to
temporarily shut down a port on the Switch when a CTP (Configuration Testing Protocol) packet has been looped
back to the Switch. When the Switch detects CTP packets received from a port or a VLAN, this signifies a loop on
the network. The Switch will automatically block the port or the VLAN and send an alert to the administrator. The
Loopback Detection port will restart (change to normal state) when the Loopback Detection
Recover Time times
out. The Loopback Detection function can be implemented on a range of ports at a time. The user may enable or
disable this function using the drop-down menu.
