Important Considerations
Connect the network cable to the resilient link ports after you reboot
the system; failure to do so may create a bridge loop in your network.
In general, create resilient links before you define your virtual LANs
(VLANs). If you plan to create resilient links for part of a VLAN, create
the resilient links before you create the VLAN.
When you create a resilient link that includes ports that are part of a
VLAN, those ports are removed from the VLAN. You must modify the
VLAN and add the new bridge port to the appropriate VLAN. This
situation does not apply to the default VLAN (all ports are part of the
default VLAN).
If you have already defined other resilient links or trunks on your
system, you cannot select ports that are part of an existing resilient
link pair or a trunk.
You must reboot the system at the end of the link definition process.
