errdisable detect
errdisable detect
To enable error-disable detection, use the errdisable detect command. To disable the error-disable
detection feature, use the no form of this command.
errdisable detect cause {all | arp-inspection [action shutdown vlan] | bpduguard shutdown
vlan | dhcp-rate-limit [action shutdown vlan] | dtp-fla p | gbic-invalid | l2ptguard | link-flap
| pagp-flap}
no errdisable detect cause {all | arp-inspection [act ion shutdow n vlan] | bpduguard shutdown
vlan | dhcp-rate-limit [action shutdown vlan] | dtp-fla p | gbic-invalid | l2ptguard | link-flap
| pagp-flap}
Syntax Description
Defaults A ll error-disable cause s are detected.
Command Modes Global c onfiguratio n mode
Usage Guidelines A cause (dtp-flap, l ink-flap, pagp-flap) is defined as the reason why th e error-disabled state occurred.
When a cause is detected on an interface, the interface is placed in error-disabled state (an operational
state that is similar to link-down state).
You must enter the shutdown command and then the no shutdown command to recover an interface
manually from the error-disa ble state.
To prevent the port from shutting down, yo u can use the shutdown vlan option to shut down just the
offending VLAN on the port where the violation occured. This option is available for the following three
causes: bpduguar d, arp-insp ection, and d hcp-rate-limit. You can use the clear errdisable command to
recover disabled VLANs on a port.
cause Specifies error-disable detection to detect a specific cause.
all Specifies error-disable detection for all error-disable causes.
arp-inspection Specifies the detection for the ARP inspection error-disable cause.
action shutdown vlan (Optional) Specifies per-VLAN error-disable for ARP inspection and DHCP
rate limiting.
bpduguard shutdown
vlan
Specifies per-VLA N erro r-disab le for B PDU guar d.
dhcp-rate-limit Specifies the detection for the DHCP rate-limit error-disable cause.
dtp-flap Specifies the detection for the DTP flap error-disable cause.
gbic-invalid Specifies the de tection for the GBIC invalid error-disable cause.
l2ptguard Specifies the detection for the Layer 2 protocol-tunnel error-disable cause.
link-flap Specifies the detection for the link flap error-disable cause.
pagp-flap Specifies the detection for the PAgP flap error-disable cause.
