problem with EAPS with shared port down involved

earroyo — Thu, 21 Sep 2017 03:35:00 GMT

Hi all, We have had a problem with EAPS that has caused a high level CPU of the switches an the increase of traffic through the rings. A continuation I show the picture of the EAPS.

External plant had a maintenance which involved that the links in red (the shared port )got down, after two or three hours the link between SJL -LN got up and the problem started, the cpu increase and the traffic also.

These are the logs (SBJExtr had 30 minutes more):

And the state of the eaps in the nodes LN and SJL are the next one.

The firmware versions are:
SBJExtr: Secondary ver: 16.1.3.6 patch1-9
LNEXtr: Secondary ver: 21.1.3.7

I realized that the problem was because of a vlan that was not configured completely in the rings.

Earroyo,

Glad you were able to identify the issue.

We could always check our EAPS configuration using the command "debug eaps check config" as this would let us know if there are any configuration part missing in the EAPS.
