Enables EAPS (Extreme Automatic Protection Switching) to converge more quickly.
off | Turns fast-convergence off. Default is off. |
on | Turns fast-convergence on. |
Default is off.
This command acts on the switch, not per domain.
In certain environments to keep packet loss to a minimum when the ring is broken, configure EAPS with fast-convergence turned on. If fast convergence is turned on, you can view the configuration with the show eaps command.
Note
If fast-convergence is turned on, the link filters on all EAPS ring ports are turned off. This can result problems if the port‘s hardware encountered a problem and started “flapping” between link-up/link-down states.
The following command configures fast convergence for all of the EAPS domains on the switch:
configure eapsfast-convergence on
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.0.
