However, if you have a partner switch with the segment-timeout expiry action set to
send-alert
,
and the controller switch does not have a segment timer configuration, you must configure the
partner switch’s segment-timeout expiry action to
segment-down
.
●
If you have a network containing non-Extreme Networks switches, set the segment-timeout expiry
action to
segment-down
.
The following events may cause a ring segment failure:
●
There is a hardware failure.
●
The controller or partner received a Link Down message from the partner or controller, respectively.
●
The segment timer expires and the expiry action was set to segment down. This means that either
the controller or partner did not receive health check messages during the defined segment timeout.
To view shared-port information, including shared-port segment status, use the
show eaps shared-
port {<port>} {detail}
command.
Example
The following example makes the following assumptions:
●
The controller switch is an Extreme Networks switch running ExtremeWare XOS 11.1
●
The partner switch is an Extreme Networks switch running ExtremeWare 7.3
The following command configures the controller to keep the segment down if the segment-timeout
expires:
configure eaps shared-port 3:3 segment-timeout expiry-action segment-down
