Configuring Flex Links and MAC Address-Table Move Update

Command
Step 3
switchport backup interface interface-id
Step 4
switchport backup interface interface-id preemption
mode [forced | bandwidth | off]
Step 5 switchport backup interface interface-id preemption
delay delay-time
Step 6 end
Step 7 show interface [interface-id] switchport backup
Step 8
copy running-config startup config
This example shows how to configure the preemption mode as forced for a backup interface pair and to
verify the configuration:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(conf)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(conf-if)#switchport backup interface gigabitethernet1/0/2 preemption mode forced
Switch(conf-if)#switchport backup interface gigabitethernet1/0/2 preemption delay 50
Switch(conf-if)# end
Switch# show interface switchport backup detail

Chapter 21 Configuring Flex Links and the MAC Address-Table Move Update Feature
Purpose
Configure a physical Layer 2 interface (or port channel)
as part of a Flex Links pair with the interface. When one
link is forwarding traffic, the other interface is in standby
mode.
Configure a preemption mechanism and delay for a Flex
Link interface pair. You can configure the preemption as:
• Forced—the active interface always preempts the
backup.
• Bandwidth—the interface with the higher bandwidth
always acts as the active interface.
• Off—no preemption happens from active to backup.
Configure the time delay until a port preempts another
port.
Setting a delay time only works with forced and
Note
bandwidth modes.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify the configuration.
(Optional) Save your entries in the switch startup
configuration file.
