ELRP Bridging Loops

Hi,

I'm trying to setup ELRP for the first time, I kind of have it working on a switch that has a tagged uplink port and then 12 ports untagged to vlan1 and 12 ports untagged to vlan2.

my query is how can I prevent a loop that bridges vlan1 and vlan2?

setup:

configure elrp-client periodic vlan1 ports 1-12 interval 5 log-and-trap disable duration 60

configure elrp-client periodic vlan2 ports 13-48 interval 5 log-and-trap disable duration 60

Thanks, Andrew

This turned out to be a problem with another switch's ELRP it was unlinking too. Thanks for reply.

have you tried configuring your uplink port to be excluded from being disabled?

configure elrp-client disable-ports exclude {port-list}

I also seem to have an issue where the uplink port which is tagged to both vlan1 & 2 goes offline if a loop appears on vlan1, even though ELRP has disabled the looped port, it's not until the looped disabled ports clears and re-enables that uplink comes back online. Loops in vlan2 have no affect on the uplink? (from aengland)
