Errdisable Detect Cause - Cisco IE-3000-8TC Command Reference Manual

errdisable detect cause

Command History Release
12.2(44)EX
Usage Guidelines
A cause (link-flap, dhcp-rate-limit, and so forth) is the reason why the error-disabled state occurred.
When a cause is detected on a port, the port is placed in an error-disabled state, an operational state that
is similar to a link-down state.
When a port is error-disabled, it is effectively shut down, and no traffic is sent or received on the port. For the
BPDU guard and port-security features, you can configure the switch to shut down just the offending
VLAN on the port when a violation occurs, instead of shutting down the entire port.
If you set a recovery mechanism for the cause by entering the errdisable recovery global configuration
command for the cause, the port is brought out of the error-disabled state and allowed to retry the
operation when all causes have timed out. If you do not set a recovery mechanism, you must enter the
shutdown and then the no shutdown commands to manually change the port from the error-disabled
state.
Examples
This example shows how to enable error-disable detection for the link-flap error-disabled cause:
Switch(config)# errdisable detect cause link-flap
This command shows how to globally configure BPDU guard for per-VLAN error disable:
Switch(config)# errdisable detect cause bpduguard shutdown vlan
You can verify your settings by entering the show errdisable detect privileged EXEC command.
