Usage Guidelines
If you enable aggressive mode, once all the neighbors of a port have aged out either in the advertisement
or in the detection phase, UDLD restarts the linkup sequence to try to resynchronize with any potentially
out-of-sync neighbor and shuts down the port if the message train from the link is still undetermined.
This command affects fiber interfaces only. Use the
enable UDLD on other interface types.
