Loopback-Detection Enable - H3C S3100 Series Command Manual

Use the undo loopback-detection control enable command to disable the loopback port control
function on the trunk or hybrid port.
The loopback port control function works in conjunction with the loopback detection function (refer to
loopback-detection
With the function enabled on the trunk or hybrid port, the system will set the port to the block state
(ports in this state cannot forward data packets), send log and trap messages to the terminal, and
remove the corresponding MAC forwarding entry. 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 and trap
messages to the terminal, and the port is still in the normal forwarding state.
By default, the loopback port control function is enabled on ports if the device boots with the default
configuration file (config.def); if the device boots with null configuration, this function is disabled.
Note that this command is invalid for an access port.

Description
Use the loopback-detection enable command to enable the loopback detection function on the
current port to detect whether an external loopback occurs on the port.
Use the undo loopback-detection enable command to disable the loopback detection function on the
port.
