linkcheck
Description
With this command, you enable the Link Check function on a ring port and you can reset the
function.
Note
Enable Link Check on only one of two connection partners. This can lead to incorrect behavior.
Note
If Link Check is enabled on all devices of a ring at the same time, and several connections
within the ring have problems, this leads to fragmentation of the ring.
1. During commissioning enable the Link Check function for one connection section after the
other by enabling Link Check for the two connection partners connected to a line.
2. To ensure an error-free connection, wait 1 min. before you enable Link Check for the next
connection section.
Requirement
● You cannot enable Link Check on ports with 10 Gbps.
● You can only enable the Link Check function with optical ring ports of an HRP or MRP ring.
● Link Check must be enabled on two neighboring devices (connection partners) within an
HRP or MRP ring.
● The ring ports on which you enable Link Check must be connected together.
● You are in the Redundancy configuration mode.
