Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.4(0.0) Supported on the FN I/O Aggregator.
9.2(0.0) Supported on the M I/O Aggregator.
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information When you congure keepalive, the system sends a self-addressed packet out of the congured interface
to verify that the far end of a WAN link is up. When you congure no keepalive, the system does not
send keepalive packets and so the local end of a WAN link remains up even if the remote end is down.
minimum-links
Congure the minimum number of links in a LAG (Port Channel) that must be in “oper up” status for the LAG to be also in “oper up”
status.
Syntax

Usage Information
If you use this command to congure the minimum number of links in a LAG that must be in “oper up”
status, the LAG must have at least that number of “oper up” links before it can be declared as up. For
example, if the required minimum is four, and only three are up, the LAG is considered down.
