Enabling FDB Scanning
You can scan the FDB on a stand-alone switch, on the backplane of a modular switch, or on a module in
a slot of a modular switch.
To enable FDB scanning, use this command:
enable fdb-scan [all | slot {{backplane} | <slot number> | msm-a | msm-b}]
where:
all
slot
NOTE
This command and its settings are independent of, and in addition to the system health check
configuration: the local settings do not affect the system health check configuration settings.
Disabling FDB Scanning
To disable FDB scanning, use this command:
disable fdb-scan [all | slot {{backplane} | <slot number> | msm-a | msm-b}]
NOTE
If you disable FDB scanning for a slot and the system health check is enabled, the slot is still scanned
by the system health checker.
