Table 1 Command output

Field	Description
Action mode	Loop protection action: ·     Block—When a loop is detected on a port, the device performs the following operations: ¡     Generates a log. ¡     Disables the port from learning MAC addresses. ¡     Blocks the port. ·     None—When a loop is detected on a port, the device generates a log but performs no action on the port. ·     No-learning—When a loop is detected on a port, the device generates a log and disables the port from learning MAC addresses. ·     Shutdown—When a loop is detected on a port, the device performs the following operations: ¡     Generates a log. ¡     Shuts down the port to disable the port from receiving or sending frames. The device automatically sets the port to the forwarding state after a time interval. Set the time interval by using the shutdown-interval command (see Fundamentals Command Reference).
VLANs/VSI	VLANs or VSI to which the interface belongs and where loops are detected.

loopback-detection action

Use loopback-detection action to set the loop protection action on a per-port basis.

Use undo loopback-detection action to restore the default.

Syntax

In Layer 2 Ethernet interface view:

loopback-detection action { block | no-learning | shutdown }

undo loopback-detection action

In Layer 2 aggregate interface view:

loopback-detection action shutdown

undo loopback-detection action

Default

When the device detects a loop on a port, it generates a log but performs no action on the port.

Parameters

block: Enables the block mode. If a loop is detected, the device performs the following operations:

·     Generates a log.

·     Disables MAC address learning.

·     Blocks the port.

Layer 2 aggregate interfaces do not support this keyword.

no-learning: Enables the no-learning mode. If a loop is detected, the device generates a log and disables MAC address learning on the port. Layer 2 aggregate interfaces do not support this keyword.

shutdown: Enables the shutdown mode. If a loop is detected, the device generates a log and shuts down the port. The device automatically sets the port to the forwarding state after the time interval set by using the shutdown-interval command (see Fundamentals Command Reference).

Usage guidelines

To set the loop protection action globally, use the loopback-detection global action command.

The global action applies to all ports. The per-port action applies to the individual ports. The per-port action takes precedence over the global action.

Example

# Set the loop protection action to shutdown on HundredGigE 3/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface hundredgige 3/0/1

[System-HundredGigE3/0/1] loopback-detection action shutdown

loopback-detection enable

Use loopback-detection enable to enable loop detection on a per-port basis.

Use undo loopback-detection enable to disable loop detection on a port.

Syntax

loopback-detection enable vlan { vlan-id-list | all }

undo loopback-detection enable vlan { vlan-id-list | all }

Default

Parameters

vlan-id-list: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 10 VLAN items. Each item specifies a VLAN ID or a range of VLAN IDs in the form of vlan-id1 to vlan-id2. The value range for VLAN IDs is 1 to 4094. The ID for vlan-id2 must be no less than the ID for vlan-id1.

all: Specifies all existing VLANs.

Usage guidelines

You can enable loop detection globally or on a per-port basis. When a port receives a detection frame in any VLAN, the loop protection action is triggered on that port, regardless of whether loop detection is enabled on it.

Example

# Enable loop detection on HundredGigE 3/0/1 for VLAN 10 through VLAN 20.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface hundredgige 3/0/1

[System-HundredGigE3/0/1] loopback-detection enable vlan 10 to 20

Table 2 Command output

Field	Description
Action mode	Loop protection action: ·     Block—When a loop is detected on an interface, the device generates a log, disables the interface from learning MAC addresses, and blocks the interface. An asterisk (*) indicates that the block action is not triggered because the loop detection priority of the AC on the interface is higher than that in received loop detection frames. A pound sign (#) indicates that the system failed to execute the block action. ·     None—When a loop is detected on an interface, the device generates a log but performs no action on the interface.
Interface	Name of the interface and the associated Ethernet service instance.
VLANs/VSI	VLANs or VSI to which the interface belongs and where loops are detected.

Parameters

block: Enables the block mode. If a loop is detected on an AC whose loop detection priority is lower than that in received loop detection frames, the device performs the following operations:

·     Generates a log.

·     Disables MAC address learning on the AC.

·     Blocks the AC.

Usage guidelines

Parameters

vlan vlan-id-list: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 10 VLAN items. Each item specifies a VLAN ID or a range of VLAN IDs in the form of vlan-id1 to vlan-id2. The value range for VLAN IDs is 1 to 4094. The value for vlan-id2 cannot be smaller than the value for vlan-id1. If you do not specify any VLAN IDs, each AC of the VSI sends loop detection frames tagged with the VLAN IDs that the AC matches.

Usage guidelines

This command enables the ACs of a VSI to send loop detection frames with one layer of VLAN tags or without VLAN tags.

If you execute this command multiple times for a VSI, all specified VLAN IDs take effect.

This command is mutually exclusive with the loopback-detection enable s-vid c-vid command. Do not use them together on a VSI.

Do not execute both the loopback-detection enable and loopback-detection enable vlan vlan-id-list commands on a VSI.

Example

# Enable single-tagged loop detection on VSI vsi1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] l2vpn enable

[Sysname] vsi vsi1

[Sysname-vsi-vsi1] loopback-detetion enable

Parameters

s-vid: Specifies SVLAN IDs.

c-vid: Specifies CVLAN IDs.

vlan-id-list: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 10 VLAN items. Each item specifies a VLAN ID or a range of VLAN IDs in the form of vlan-id1 to vlan-id2. The value range for VLAN IDs is 1 to 4094. The value for vlan-id2 cannot be smaller than the value for vlan-id1.

Usage guidelines

This command enables the ACs of a VSI to send loop detection frames with two layers of VLAN tags. The VLAN tags of the loop detection frames are all combinations of the specified CVLANs and SVLANs. For example, if you execute the loopback-detetion enable s-vid 2 to 3 c-vid 5 to 6 command for a VSI, the ACs of the VSI send loop detection frames tagged with the following VLAN IDs:

·     SVLAN ID 2 and CVLAN ID 5.

·     SVLAN ID 2 and CVLAN ID 6.

·     SVLAN ID 3 and CVLAN ID 5.

·     SVLAN ID 3 and CVLAN ID 6.

If you execute this command multiple times for a VSI, all specified VLAN IDs take effect.

This command is mutually exclusive with the loopback-detection enable command. Do not use them together on a VSI.

You can use the undo loopback-detection enable s-vid c-vid command to remove CVLAN and SVLAN IDs for double-tagged loop detection on a VSI. If you specify a CVLAN or SVLAN ID not in the CVLAN or SVLAN list, the system ignores your operation. If you remove all CVLAN and SVLAN IDs, the system disables double-tagged loop detection on the VSI.

Example

# Enable double-tagged loop detection on VSI vsi2. Specify the SVLANs as VLANs 5 through 10 and CVLANs as VLANs 10 through 20.

Parameters

priority: Sets the priority value in the range of 1 to 7. The smaller the value, the higher the priority.

Usage guidelines

The loop detection frames sent by an AC carry the loop detection priority of the VSI mapped to the AC. The loop detection priority of a frame contains the priority value, the bridge MAC address, and the AC's link ID. When an AC receives a loop detection frame, it compares its own loop detection priority with that in the frame to identify whether a loop exists. If the loop detection priority in the frame is higher, a loop exists and the loop protection action is triggered. If the loop detection priority of the AC is higher, the system only records the loop information.

An AC uses the following procedure to compare its loop detection priority with that in an incoming loop detection frame:

1.     Compares the priority values. The smaller the value, the higher the priority.

2.     Compares the bridge MAC addresses if the priority values are the same. A lower bridge MAC address has a higher priority.

3.     Compares the link IDs if the bridge MAC addresses are the same, which indicates the loop detection frame is sent by another AC of the device. A smaller link ID has a higher priority.

Example

# Set the priority value in the loop detection priority to 3 on VSI vsi1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] l2vpn enable

[Sysname] vsi vsi1

[Sysname-vsi-vsi1] loopback-detetion priority 3
