UDLD Aggressive and Nonaggressive Modes
UDLD aggressive mode is disabled by default. You can configure UDLD aggressive mode only on
point-to-point links between network devices that support UDLD aggressive mode. If UDLD aggressive
mode is enabled, when a port on a bidirectional link that has a UDLD neighbor relationship established
stops receiving UDLD frame, UDLD tries to reestablish the connection with the neighbor. After eight
failed retries, the port is disabled.
To prevent spanning tree loops, nonaggressive UDLD with the default interval of 15 seconds is fast
enough to shut down a unidirectional link before a blocking port transitions to the forwarding state (with
default spanning tree parameters).
When you enable the UDLD aggressive mode, the following occurs:
•
•
In these cases, the UDLD aggressive mode disables one of the ports on the link, which prevents traffic
from being discarded.
You enable the UDLD aggressive mode globally to enable that mode on all the fiber ports. You must
Note
enable the UDLD aggressive mode on copper ports on specified interfaces.
When a line card upgrade is being performed during an in-service software upgrade (ISSU) and some of
Tip
the ports on the line card are members of a Layer 2 port channel and are configured with UDLD
aggressive mode. If one of the remote ports is shutdown, UDLD puts the corresponding port on the local
device into error disabled state. This is correct behavior.
To restore service after the ISSU has completed, run a shutdown followed by a no shutdown command
on the local port.
