1.2 DLDP Configuration Task List

Complete the following tasks to configure DLDP:
Enabling DLDP
Setting DLDP Mode
Setting the Interval for Sending Advertisement Packets
Setting the DelayDown Timer
Setting the Port Shutdown Mode
Configuring DLDP Authentication
Resetting DLDP State
Note that:
DLDP works only when the link is up.
To ensure unidirectional links can be detected, make sure these settings are the
same on the both sides: DLDP state (enabled/disabled), the interval for sending
Advertisement packets, authentication mode, and password.
Keep the interval for sending Advertisement packets adequate to enable
unidirectional links to be detected in time. If the interval is too long, unidirectional
links cannot be terminated in time; if the interval is too short, network traffic may
increase in vain.
LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) events have no effect on DLDP. Links
in an aggregation group are treated individually in DLDP.
802.1X has no effect on DLDP.
When connecting two DLDP-enabled devices, make sure the DLDP version ID
fields of the DLDP packets exchanged between the two devices are the same.
Otherwise, DLDP may operate improperly.
A neighbor is in this state when the link connecting it is detected
to be a unidirectional link. After a device transits to this state, the
corresponding neighbor entries maintained on other devices are
removed.
