Syntax
set spantree lpcapablepartner port-string {true | false}
Parameters
port‐string
true | false
Defaults
None.
Mode
Switch command, Read‐Write.
Usage
The default value for Loop Protect capable partner is false. If the port is configured with a Loop
Protect capable partner (true), then the full functionality of the Loop Protect feature is used. If the
value is false, then there is some ambiguity as to whether an Active Partner timeout is due to a
loop protection event or is a normal situation due to the fact that the partner port does not
transmit Alternate Agreement BPDUs. Therefore, a conservative approach is taken in that
designated ports will not be allowed to forward unless receiving agreements from a port with root
role.
This type of timeout will not be considered a loop protection event. Loop protection is maintained
by keeping the port from forwarding but since this is not considered a loop event it will not be
factored into locking the port.
See "Loop Protect" on page 2. for more information.
Example
This example shows how to set the Loop Protect capable partner to true for ge.1.1:
Matrix(rw)->set spantree lpcapablepartner ge.1.1 true
Specifies port(s) for which to configure a Loop Protect capable link
partner. For a detailed description of possible port‐string values, refer to
"Port String Syntax Used in the CLI" on page 4‐2.
