ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide

enable elsm ports auto-restart
enable elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
Description
Enables ELSM automatic restart for the specified ports.
Syntax Description
Default
The default is enabled.
Usage Guidelines
You must explicitly configure this behavior on each ELSM-enabled port; this is not a global command.
By default, ELSM automatic restart is enabled. If an ELSM-enabled port goes down, ELSM bypasses the
Down-Stuck state and automatically transitions the down port to the Down state, regardless of the
number of times the port goes up and down.
If you disable ELSM automatic restart, the ELSM-enabled port can transition between the following
states multiple times: Up, Down, and Down-Wait. When the number of state transitions is greater than
or equal to the sticky threshold, the port enters the Down-Stuck state.
The ELSM sticky threshold specifies the number of times a port can transition between the Up and
Down states. The sticky threshold is not user-configurable and has a default value of 1. That means a
port can transition only one time from the Up state to the Down state. If the port attempts a subsequent
transition from the Up state to the Down state, the port enters the Down-Stuck state.
If the port enters the Down-Stuck state, you can clear the stuck state and enter the Down state by using
one of the following commands:
clear elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
enable elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
If you use the
enable elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
command, automatic restart is always
enabled; you do not have to use the
clear elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
command to clear
the stuck state.
To disable automatic restart, use the following command:
disable elsm ports <portlist> auto-restart
If you configure automatic restart on one port, Extreme Networks recommends that you use the same
configuration on its peer port.
portlist
Specifies the port or ports for which ELSM auto-restart is being enabled.
