Syntax Description
on | Isolate MLAG ports from sending traffic to local ISC port during link-up transition until remote ISC port is configured. |
off | Do not isolate MLAG ports from sending traffic to local ISC port during link-up transition. |
Default
The default is off.
Usage Guidelines
Under certain circumstances, a temporary (less than a second) loop condition exists when an MLAG port becomes operational, but before the remote MLAG peer installs the ISC blocking filter. MLAG linkup isolation addresses this condition by preventing any flood traffic (broadcast, unknown, unicast, etc.) received on a just operational MLAG port from being forwarded to ISC ports until the remote MLAG peer installs the ISC blocking filter.
Example
The following example enables MLAG linkup isolation:
configure mlag ports link-up-isolation on
