To do...
Set the DelayDown timer

Setting the Port Shutdown Mode

On detecting a unidirectional link, the ports can be shut down in one of the following two modes.
Manual mode. This mode applies to networks with low performance, where normal links may be
treated as unidirectional links. It protects service packet transmission against false unidirectional
links. In this mode, DLDP only detects unidirectional links and generates log and traps. The
operations to shut down unidirectional link ports are accomplished by the administrator.
Auto mode. In this mode, when a unidirectional link is detected, DLDP transits to Disable state,
generates log and traps, and set the port as DLDP Down.
Follow these steps to set port shutdown mode:
To do...
Enter system view
Set port shutdown mode
If the device is busy, or the CPU utilization is high, normal links may be treated as unidirectional links. In
this case, you can set the port shutdown mode to manual mode to eliminate the effects caused by false
unidirectional link report.
