Configuring a service loopback group

A service loopback group contains one or multiple Ethernet ports for looping packets sent out by the device back to the device. This feature must work with other features, such as multiport ARP.

A service loopback group provides only the multiport service that supports multiport ARP traffic.

You can configure only one service loopback group for a service type. However, you can use one service loopback group with multiple features.

Member ports in a service loopback group are load balanced.

Configuration procedure

Follow these guidelines when you configure a service loopback group:

·          Make sure the ports you are assigning to a service loopback group meet the following requirements:

?  The ports are not used for any other purposes. The configuration on a port is removed when it is assigned to a service loopback group.

?  The ports support the service type of the service loopback group and are not members of any other service loopback group.

·          You cannot change the service type of a service loopback group.

·          Do not delete a service loopback group that is being used by a feature.

·          An IRF physical interface cannot be assigned to a service loopback group.

·          For correct traffic processing, make sure a service loopback group has a minimum of one member port when it is being used by a feature.

To configure a service loopback group:

 

Step

Command

Remarks

1.       Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.       Create a service loopback group and specify its service type.

service-loopback group group-id type multiport

By default, no service loopback group exists.

3.       Enter Layer 2 Ethernet interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

N/A

4.       Assign the port to the service loopback group.

port service-loopback group group-id

By default, a port does not belong to any service loopback group.

You can assign a maximum of 32 ports to a service loopback group.

 

Displaying and maintaining service loopback groups

Execute display commands in any view.

Service loopback group configuration example

Network requirements

Assign GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 to a service loopback group to loop multiport ARP packets sent out by the device back to the device.

Configuration procedure

# Create service loopback group 1, and specify its service type as multiport.

<DeviceA> system-view

[DeviceA] service-loopback group 1 type multiport

# Assign GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 to service loopback group 1.

[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] port service-loopback group 1

All configurations on the interface will be lost. Continue?[Y/N]:y [DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] quit

[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] port service-loopback group 1

All configurations on the interface will be lost. Continue?[Y/N]:y [DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/2] quit

[DeviceA] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/3

[DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] port service-loopback group 1

All configurations on the interface will be lost. Continue?[Y/N]:y [DeviceA-GigabitEthernet1/0/3] quit
