Usage guidelines
LACP MAD handles collisions in a different way than BFD MAD, ARP MAD, and ND MAD. To avoid
conflicts, do not enable LACP MAD together with any of those mechanisms in an IRF fabric. However,
you can use BFD MAD, ARP MAD, and ND MAD together.
LACP MAD uses extended LACP packets for detecting multi-active collisions and requires an intermediate
device.
You must set up a dynamic link aggregation group that spans all IRF member devices between the IRF
fabric and the intermediate device. To enable dynamic link aggregation, configure the link-aggregation
mode dynamic command on the aggregate interface.
If the intermediate device is also an IRF fabric, make sure the two IRF fabrics have different domain IDs
for correct split detection. False detection causes IRF split.
When you use the mad enable command, the system prompts you to enter a domain ID. If you do not
want to change the current domain ID, press enter at the prompt.
Restrictions and guidelines
•
To avoid problems, only use the mad ip address command to configure IP
addresses on the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface. Do not configure an IP
address with the ip address command or configure a VRRP virtual address on
the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface.
•
All MAD IP addresses on the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface must be on
the same subnet.
