To create or modify a switch trigger, use the commands:
create trigger=trigger-id module=switch event={linkdown|
linkup} port=port [after=hh:mm] [before=hh:mm] [date=date|
days=day-list] [name=name] [repeat={yes|no|once|forever|
count}] [script=filename...] [state={enabled|disabled}]
[test={yes|no|on|off|true|false}]
set trigger=trigger-id [port=port] [after=hh:mm]
[before=hh:mm] [date=date|days=day-list] [name=name]
[repeat={yes|no|once|forever|count}] [test={yes|no|on|
off|true|false}]
Configuration Examples
This section shows examples of configuring the Layer two switch functions on
the switch. All examples assume that the switch configuration begins from
factory default settings.
Note that routing, required for communication between the VLANs, is not
shown in these examples.
Example Using One Switch to Extend a Local
LAN
The example in Figure 8-10 on page 8-61 uses a single switch to connect two (or
more) physical LANs and a server. All the devices connected belong to the
same broadcast domain, and separate collision domains. The learning and
forwarding processes in the switch give this topology better performance than
a single LAN would give, and allow more devices to be attached than would a
single physical LAN.
Argument Description
%1 The port number of the port that has just gone down.
Parameter Description
port=port The port where the event activates the trigger.
Argument Description
%1 The port number of the port that has just come up.
