SCE 1000 2xGBE Release 2.0.10 User Guide
OL-7117-02 7-15
To set the link mode:
Step 1 From the SCE 1000 (config if)# prompt, type link-mode
[forwarding|bypass|sniffing|cutoff] and press Enter.
To view the current link mode:
Step 1 From the SCE 1000# prompt, type show interface linecard 0 link mode
and press Enter.
Enabling and Disabling Link Failure Reflection
In some topologies, link failure on one port must be reflected to the other port in order to allow
the higher layer redundancy protocol in the network to detect the failure and function correctly.
The link failure-reflection command determines the behavior of the system when
there is a link problem.
The link failure-reflection command enables reflection of a link failure. Use the [no]
form of this command to disable failure reflection on the link.
• [no] link failure-reflection
The default value is disabled.
To enable reflection of link failure:
Step 1 From the SCE 1000(config)# prompt, type interface Linecard 0, and press
Enter.
The SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears.
Step 2 Type link failure-reflection and press Enter.
Failure reflection on the link is enabled, and the SCE 1000(config if)# prompt appears.
Line Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces
The two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces connect the SCE 1000 platform to the network. See the
description of network topologies in Topology (on page 2-1).
To configure the GigabitEthernet parameters, you must be in the GigabitEthernet Configure
Interface Mode
