Usage Guidelines
SLPP is an application that detects loops in a Split Multi-link Trunking (SMLT) network. SLPP Guard is a complementary feature that helps prevent loops in networks by administratively disabling an edge port if a switch receives an SLPP PDU from an SMLT network.
Example
The following example enables SLPP Guard on port 5:
# enable slpp guard ports 5
