RackSwitch G8000: Application Guide
Manually Monitoring Port Links
The Manual Monitor allows you to configure a set of ports and/or trunks to monitor
for link failures (a monitor list), and another set of ports and/or trunks to disable
when the trigger limit is reached (a control list). When the switch detects a link
failure on the monitor list, it automatically disables the items in control list. When
server ports are disabled, the corresponding server’s network adapter can detect
the disabled link, and trigger a network-adapter failover to another port or trunk on
the switch, or another switch.
The switch automatically enables the control list items when the monitor list items
return to service.
Monitor Port State
A monitor port is considered operational as long as the following conditions are true:
•
The port must be in the
Link Up
state.
• If STP is enabled, the port must be in the
Forwarding
state.
• If the port is part of an LACP trunk, the port must be in the
Aggregated
state.
If any of these conditions is false, the monitor port is considered to have failed.
Control Port State
A control port is considered Operational if the monitor trigger is up. As long as the
trigger is up, the port is considered operational from a teaming perspective, even if
the port itself is actually in the
Down
state,
Blocking
state (if STP is enabled on the
port), or
Not Aggregated
state (if part of an LACP trunk).
A control port is considered to have failed only if the monitor trigger is in the
Down
state.
To view the state of any port, use one of the following commands:
L2 Failover with Other Features
L2 Failover works together with Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and with
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), as described in the next sections.
LACP
Link Aggregation Control Protocol allows the switch to form dynamic trunks. You can
use the admin key to add up to two LACP trunks to a failover trigger using automatic
monitoring. When you add an admin key to a trigger, any LACP trunk with that
admin key becomes a member of the trigger.
