6.4 How to Use Error Disable and Recovery on
the Switch
This tutorial shows you how to shut down a port when:
• there is a loop occurred
or
• too many ARP requests (over 100 packets per second) received on a port
You also want the Switch to wait for a period (10 minutes) before resuming the
port automatically, after the problem(s) are gone. Loop guard and Errdiable
features are helpful for this demand.
Note: Refer to Section 27.2 on page 297 and Section 31.3 on page 312 for more
information about Loop Guard and Errdiable.
To configure the settings:
1 First, click Advanced Application > Loop Guard. Select the Active option in
the first section to enable loop guard on the Switch. Then select the Active option
of the first entry (port *) to enable loop guard for all ports. Click Apply.
