H3C Loopback Detection Feature Manual Release 2107 Chapter 1 Loopback Detection Configuration Chapter 1 Loopback Detection Configuration Note: Two functions are added to release 2107: configuring loopback detection for a list of ports in bulk, and enabling auto-shutdown of loopback ports. 1.1 Loopback Detection Configuration 1.1.1 Loopback Detection Overview Loopback detection is used to monitor if a port of a switch is looped back.
H3C Loopback Detection Feature Manual Release 2107 Chapter 1 Loopback Detection Configuration If the loopback port auto-shutdown function is enabled on the port, the system will shut down the port and send log messages to the terminal. After the loop is removed, you need to use the undo shutdown command to bring up the port.

H3C Loopback Detection Feature Manual Chapter 2 Loopback Detection Configuration Release 2107 Commands After the loop is removed, the port will automatically resume the normal forwarding state. With the function disabled on the trunk or hybrid port, the system will only send log messages to the terminal, and the port is still in the normal forwarding state.

After the loop is removed, you need to use the undo shutdown command to bring up the port. If you have not enabled the loopback port auto-shutdown function on the access port, the port will automatically resume the normal forwarding state after the loop is removed.
