Resilient-Arp Interface Vlan-Interface - 3Com 5500-EI PWR Reference Manual

Parameters
None
Description
Use the resilient-arp enable command to enable the Resilient ARP function. The switch will adopt
different methods based on the actual status. If the main link in the fabric breaks, the switch sends
resilient ARP packets through the VLAN interface on the backup link to determine whether it should act
as a Layer 3 or Layer 2 device.
Use the undo resilient-arp enable command to disable the Resilient ARP function.
By default, the Resilient ARP function is enabled.

Description
Use the resilient-arp interface Vlan-interface command to enable the VLAN interface to send
Resilient ARP packets.
Use the undo resilient-arp interface Vlan-interface command to disable the VLAN interface from
sending Resilient ARP packets.
By default, Resilient ARP packets are sent through VLAN-interface 1.
Note that this command is used to enable a VLAN interface to send Resilient ARP packets, while all
VLAN interfaces can receive Resilient ARP packets.
