The ELRP client must be enabled globally in order for it to work on any VLANs.
The ELRP client can be disabled globally so that none of the ELRP VLAN configurations take effect. Use the disable elrp-client command to globally disable the ELRP client.
The ExtremeXOS does not support ELRP and Network Login on the same port.
The following command globally enables the ELRP client:
# enable elrp-client
The following example enables hardware-assisted ELRP client:
# enable elrp-client hardware-assist
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.1.
Hardware-assisted ELRP option added in ExtremeXOS 30.3.
