SWITCHPORT ATMF AREALINK REMOTE

switchport atmf-arealink remote-area

Overview This command enables you to configure a port or aggregator to be an AMF
arealink. AMF arealinks are designed to operate between two nodes in different
areas in an AMF network.
Use the no variant of this command to remove any AMF-arealink that may exist for
the selected port or aggregated link.
This command is only available on AMF controllers and master nodes.
switchport atmf-arealink remote-area <area-name> vlan <2-4094>
Syntax
no switchport atmf-arealink
Default By default, no arealinks are configured
Mode Interface Configuration for a switchport, a static aggregator or a dynamic channel
group.
Usage Run this command on the port or aggregator at both ends of the link.
Each area must have the area-name configured, and the same area password must
exist on both ends of the link.
Running this command will automatically place the port or static aggregator into
trunk mode (i.e. switchport mode trunk) and will synchronize the area information
stored on the two nodes.
You can configure multiple arealinks between two area nodes, but only one
arealink at any time will be in use. All other arealinks will block information, to
prevent network storms.
Do not use a VCStack port as an AMF link, even if you have configured the port as
a data port. During AMF recovery, these ports revert to their default state of being
VCStack ports, so AMF cannot use them for recovery. Use a standard front-panel
data port instead.
Example To make a switchport 1.2.1 an arealink to the Auckland area on VLAN 6, use the
following commands
controller-1#
controller-1(config)#
controller-1(config-if)#
Auckland vlan 6
