Troubleshooting - 3Com 4500G Family Configuration Manual

Neighbor port index : 59
Neighbor state : two way
Neighbor aged time : 11
The output information indicates that both GigabitEthernet 1/0/50 and GigabitEthernet 1/0/51 are in
Advertisement state and the links are up, which means unidirectional links are not detected and the two
ports are restored.

Troubleshooting

Symptom:
Two DLDP-enabled devices, Device A and Device B, are connected through two fiber pairs, in which
two fibers are cross-connected. The unidirectional links cannot be detected; all the four ports involved
are in Advertisement state.
Analysis:
The problem can be caused by the following.
The intervals for sending Advertisement packets on Device A and Device B are not the same.
DLDP authentication modes/passwords on Device A and Device B are not the same.
Solution:
Make sure the interval for sending Advertisement packets, the authentication mode, and the password
configured on Device A and Device B are the same.
