Election Algorithm | Description |
---|---|
ports > track > priority |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: active ports, tracking information, ESRP priority. |
ports > track > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: active ports, tracking information, ESRP priority, MAC address. NOTE: This is the default election algorithm for standard mode. |
priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: ESRP priority, MAC address. |
priority > ports > track > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: ESRP priority, active ports, tracking information, MAC address. |
priority > track > ports > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: ESRP priority, tracking information, active ports, MAC address. |
sticky > ports > track > priority |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, active ports, tracking information, ESRP priority. |
sticky > ports > track > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, active ports, tracking information, ESRP priority, MAC address. |
sticky > ports > weight > track > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, active ports, port weight, tracking information, ESRP priority, MAC address. This is the default election algorithm for extended mode. |
sticky > priority > ports > track > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, ESRP priority, active ports, tracking information, MAC address. |
sticky > priority > track > ports > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, ESRP priority, tracking information, active ports, MAC address. |
sticky > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, ESRP priority, MAC address. |
sticky > track > ports > priority |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, tracking information, active ports, ESRP priority. |
sticky > track > ports > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: stickiness, tracking information, active ports, ESRP priority, MAC address. |
track > ports > priority |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: tracking information, active ports, ESRP priority. |
track > ports > priority > mac |
Specifies that this ESRP domain should consider election factors in the following order: tracking information, active ports, ESRP priority, MAC address. |
Caution
All switches in the ESRP network must use the same election algorithm; otherwise, loss of connectivity, broadcast storms, or other unpredictable behavior may occur.
Note
If you have a network that contains a combination of switches running ExtremeXOS software and ExtremeWare, only the ports > track > priority >mac election algorithm is compatible with ExtremeWare releases before version 6.0.
