Monitor Link Configuration Example - HP 5900 Series Configuration Manual

Monitor Link configuration example

Network requirements
As shown in
Device C is a Smart Link device, and Device A, Device B, and Device D are associated devices.
•
Traffic of VLANs 1 through 30 on Device C is dual-uplinked to Device A through a smart link group.
Implement dual uplink backup on Device C. When the link between Device A and Device B (or
•
Device D) fails, Device C can detect the link fault and perform uplink switchover in the smart link
group.

Configuration procedure
1. Configure Device C:
# Create VLANs 1 through 30.
<DeviceC> system-view
[DeviceC] vlan 1 to 30
# Map these VLANs to MSTI 1.
[DeviceC] stp region-configuration
[DeviceC-mst-region] instance 1 vlan 1 to 30
# Activate MST region configuration.
[DeviceC-mst-region] active region-configuration
[DeviceC-mst-region] quit
# Shut down Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.
[DeviceC] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[DeviceC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] shutdown
# Disable the spanning tree feature on the interface.
[DeviceC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] undo stp enable
# Configure the interface as a trunk port.
[DeviceC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port link-type trunk
# Assign the interface to VLANs 1 through 30.
[DeviceC-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port trunk permit vlan 1 to 30
