– Device Name — Name of the remote device.
–
Port ID — Name of the remote port.
–
State — State of the link between the local and neighboring device on
the local port. The following values are possible:
•
Detection — The latest UDLD state of the port is in the process
of being determined. Expiration time has not yet expired since
the last determination (if there was one), or since UDLD began
running on the port, so that the state is not yet determined.
•
Bidirectional — Traffic sent by the local device is received by its
neighbor, and traffic from the neighbor is received by the local
device.
•
Undetermined — The state of the link between the port and its
connected port cannot be determined either because no UDLD
message was received or the UDLD message did not contain the
local device ID in it.
•
Disabled — UDLD has been disabled on this port.
•
Shutdown — The port has been shut down because its link with
the connected device is unidirectional or undetermined in
aggressive mode.
–
Neighbor Expiration Time (Sec.) — Displays the time that must pass
before determining the port UDLD status. This is three times the
Message Time.
–
Neighbor Message Time (Sec.) — Displays the time between UDLD
messages.
