1.2.4 (Optional) Enabling DLDP Compatible Mode
Context
If the S3700 needs to work with the following Huawei switches to provide the DLDP function,
this task is required. The software versions of the following switches must support the DLDP
function:
l
S8500
l
S7800
l
S6500
l
S5600
l
S5100–EI
l
S3900
l
S3500
l
S3100
Procedure
Step 1
Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2
Run:
bpdu mac-address
mac-address
[
mac-address-mask
]
The S3700 is configured to use the BPDU MAC address 010F-E200-0001 to send DLDP packets.
The MAC addresses used for sending DLDP packets on the S3700 and on the old Huawei
switches are different. Therefore, the S3700 must be configured to use BPDU MAC address
10F-E200-0001 to send DLDP packets.
Step 3
Run:
interface
interface-type
interface-number
The interface view is displayed.
Or run:
port-group
port-group-name
The port group view is displayed.
Step 4
Run:
dldp compatible-mode enable
The DLDP compatible mode is enabled.
If two devices are connected by using two links, the DLDP compatible mode must be enabled
or disabled on both the two interfaces.
If devices at both ends are S3700s, the interfaces at both ends must use the same DLDP
compatible mode. That is, you must enable or disable the DLDP compatible mode
simultaneously on the interfaces.
