configure elrp-client periodic
configure elrp-client periodic <vlan_name> ports [<ports> | all] interval
<sec> [log | log-and-trap | trap]
Description
Starts periodic ELRP packet transmission on the specified ports of the VLAN using the specified
interval.
Syntax Description
Default
The interval between consecutive packet transmissions is 1 second.
Usage Guidelines
This command starts periodic ELRP packet transmission on the specified ports of the VLAN using the
specified interval. If any of these transmitted packets is returned, indicating loopback detection, the
ELRP client can perform a configured action such as logging a message in the system log file and/or
sending a trap to the SNMP manager.
Use either the
configure elrp-client one-shot
or the
run elrp
command to configure non-
periodic, one-time transmission of ELRP packets.
The ELRP client must be enabled globally in order for it to work on any VLANs. Use the
enable elrp-client
command to globally enable the ELRP client.
The ELRP client can be disabled globally so that none of the ELRP VLAN configurations take effect. Use
the
disable elrp-client
command to globally disable the ELRP client.
