Chapter 4 Configuring the Cisco MWR 2941 Router Using the CLI
Configuration Sequence
Router(config-if)# rep preempt delay 60
Step 10 Exit configuration mode.
Router(config-if)# end
Router#
You can use the show interface [interface-id] rep detail command to verify your configuration. Enter
the show rep topology command to see which port in the segment is the primary edge port.
Setting Manual Preemption for VLAN Load Balancing
If you do not enter the rep preempt delay seconds command on the primary edge port to configure a
preemption time delay, the default setting is to manually trigger VLAN load balancing on the segment.
Be sure to complete all other segment configuration before manually preempting VLAN load balancing.
When you enter the rep preempt segment segment-id command, a confirmation message appears before
the command is executed because preemption can cause network disruption.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps on the switch that has the segment primary edge
port to manually trigger VLAN load balancing on a segment:
Step 1 Use the rep preempt segment command to manually trigger VLAN load balancing on the segment. You
need to confirm the command before it is executed.
Router# rep preempt segment segment-id
Step 2 Use the show rep topology command to view REP topology information.
Router# show rep topology
Configuring SNMP Traps for REP
You can configure the switch to send REP-specific traps to notify the SNMP server of link operational
status changes and port role changes. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to
configure REP traps:
Step 1 Enter enable mode.
Router> enable
Step 2 Enter the password.
Password: password
When the prompt changes to Router, you have entered enable mode.
Step 3 Enter global configuration mode.
Router# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Step 4 Use the snmp mib rep trap-rate command to enable the switch to send REP traps and set the number
of traps sent per second. The range is from 0 to 1000. The default is 0 (no limit imposed; a trap is sent
at every occurrence).
