Configuring Non-periodic Requests

To start one-time, non-periodic ELRP packet transmission on specified ports of a VLAN (Virtual LAN) using a particular count and interval, use one of the following commands:

(This command is backward compatible with Extreme Networks switches running the ExtremeWare software.)

These commands start one-time, non-periodic ELRP packet transmission on the specified ports of the VLAN using the specified count and interval. If any of these transmitted packets is returned, indicating loopback detection, the ELRP client performs the configured actions of logging a message in the system log file and/or printing a log message to the console. There is no need to trap to the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) manager for non-periodic requests.
