Usage guidelines
The FKA advertisement period determines the length of time it takes the switch to detect the disconnection
of a virtual link.
The FKA advertisement period defines the interval for a switch to send unsolicited Discovery
Advertisements to its peer switches or ENodes. If the peer switch or ENode fails to receive unsolicited
Discovery Advertisements within 2.5 FKA advertisement periods (the period that is carried in received
unsolicited Discovery Advertisements instead of being configured on the local switch), it deletes the
virtual link. If the switch fails to receive keepalive frames from the peer ENode within this time, it also
deletes the virtual link.
VFC interfaces in NP mode use the FKA advertisement period value learned from the peer switch instead
of that configured on the local switch.
According to FC-BB-5, the upper limit of the FKA advertisement period value is 90 seconds. Therefore,
when the switch is connected to servers, storage devices, or third-party switches, configure the FKA
advertisement period value to be no more than 90 seconds.
Examples
# Configure the FKA advertisement period value as 20 seconds.
