set bonding port enable

Use this command to enable a VSB interconnect or LFR monitor port.

Syntax

Parameters

Defaults

Bonding is disabled on ports.

Mode

All command modes.

Usage

Use this command to enable VSB ports for VSB chassis interconnection or LFR monitoring.

VSB interconnect ports are the 40GbE ports interconnecting the VSB chassis that make up the VSB system. The chassis must be configured for VSB using set bonding chassis before enabling VSB interconnect ports.

VSB Link Failure Response ports are 1 or 10GbE ports used to monitor a partner VSB chassis. In the case of a failure of all VSB interconnectivity, LFR monitoring determines which surviving stack segment will keep its front-panel ports enabled.

VSB interconnect and LFR monitor ports can be provisioned before VSB is enabled.

VSB supports enabling up to a combined total of 32 VSB connectivity and LFR monitor links (32 ports per chassis).

Note

All VSB enabled 40GbE ports are treated as VSB interconnect ports. All VSB enabled 10GbE ports are treated as LFR ports. If a 40GbE port is configured to run in 4 x 10 Gbps mode, it will not be available for VSB interconnect use (see set port speed).

When first configuring VSB (chassis has not yet been globally enabled), ports are specified as they would be for a non-VSB system: fg.x.y or tg.x.y (where x specifies the slot of the non-VSB system and y specifies the port).

In a VSB globally enabled system, the slot number agrees with the VSB chassis number.

When modifying interconnect ports in a globally enabled VSB system, use the globally enabled port designation to specify ports.
