auto-recovery reload-delay time-out-value
no auto-recovery reload-delay time-out-value
Syntax Description
reload-delay
Specifies the duration to wait after reload to recovery vPCs.
time-out-value
Timeout value for restoring vPC links in seconds. The range is from 240 to 3600.
Defaults
None
Command Modes

bandwidth (interface)
To set the inherited and received bandwidth values for an interface, use the bandwidth command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.
bandwidth {kbps | inherit [kbps]}
no bandwidth {kbps | inherit [kbps]}
Syntax Description
Defaults
1000000 kbps
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Supported User Rolesnetwork-admin
vdc-adminCommand History
Usage Guidelines
The bandwidth command sets an informational parameter to communicate only the current bandwidth to the higher-level protocols; you cannot adjust the actual bandwidth of an interface using this command.
Note
This is a routing parameter only. It does not affect the physical interface.
The bandwidth inherit command controls how a subinterface inherits the bandwidth of its main interface.
The no bandwidth inherit command enables all subinterfaces to inherit the default bandwidth of the main interface, regardless of the configured bandwidth. If a bandwidth is not configured on a subinterface, and you use the bandwidth inherit command, all subinterfaces inherit the current bandwidth of the main interface. If you configure a new bandwidth on the main interface, all subinterfaces use this new value.
If you do not configure a bandwidth on the subinterface and you configure the bandwidth inherit command on the main interface, the subinterfaces inherit the specified bandwidth.
In all cases, if an interface has an explicit bandwidth setting configured, that interface uses that setting, regardless of whether the bandwidth inheritance setting is in effect.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure all subinterfaces off this main interface to inherit the configured bandwidth:
switch(config-if)# bandwidth inherit 30000Related Commands
bfd
To enable Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) for a protocol, use the bfd command. To disable BFD for a protocol, use the no form of this command.
bfd
no bfd
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
BFD is not enabled on the protocol.
Command Modes
Router configuration
Neighbor configurationCommand History
Usage Guidelines
There are two methods to configure protocols to use BFD for failure detection. To enable BFD for all neighbors or interfaces of a protocol, enter the bfd command in router configuration mode for the Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2), and Intermediate-System-to-Intermediate-System (IS-IS) or in neighbor configuration mode for the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). If you do not want to enable BFD on all interfaces, see the interface-level BFD enable commands in the Related Commands section.
Examples
This example shows how to enable BFD for all EIGRP neighbors:
switch# configure terminalswitch(config)# router eigrp Test1switch(config-router)# bfdThis example shows how to enable BFD for all BGP neighbors:
switch# configure terminalswitch(config)# router bgp 1.1switch(config-router)# neighbor 192.0.2.1 remote-as 1.0switch(config-router-neighbor)# bfdRelated Commands

bfd echo
To enable Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) echo mode, use the bfd echo command. To disable BFD echo mode, use the no form of this command.
bfd echo
no bfd echo
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
BFD echo mode is enabled by default.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
When echo mode is enabled, the required minimum receive interval value is taken from the BFD slow-timer setting.
Note
Note
Use the no bfd echo command to stop sending echo packets and signify that the device is unwilling to forward echo packets that are received from BFD neighbors. The RequiredMinEchoRx BFD session parameter is set to zero when echo mode is disabled.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure echo mode between BFD neighbors:
switch(config)# interface Ethernet 1/1switch(config-if)# bfd echoThis example shows that the BFD session neighbor is up and using BFD echo mode. The relevant command output is shown in bold in the output:

bfd neighbor multihop---need to document
To optimize subinterfaces on a physical interface for Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD), use the bfd optimize subinterfaces command. To return to the default setting, use the no form of this command.
bfd optimize subinterfaces
no bfd optimize subinterfaces
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
Disabled
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
You can optimize subinterfaces, because BFD creates sessions for all configured subinterfaces. BFD sets the subinterface with the lowest configured VLAN ID as the master subinterface and that subinterface uses the BFD session parameters of the parent interface. The remaining subinterfaces use the slow timer. If the master subinterface session detects an error, BFD marks all subinterfaces on that physical interface as down.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to enable subinterface optimization:
switch(config)# interface Ethernet 1/1switch(config-if)# bfd optimize subinterfacesRelated Commands
bfd optimize subinterfaces
To optimize subinterfaces on a physical interface for Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD), use the bfd optimize subinterfaces command. To return to the default setting, use the no form of this command.

bfd per-link
To enable Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) for all links in a port channel, use the bfd per-link command. To disable BFD for a port channel, use the no form of this command.
bfd per-link
no bfd per-link
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Defaults
BFD is not enabled on the port channel.
Command Modes
Port channel configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Us the bfd per-link command to enable BFD on each link in a port channel. BFD creates a session for each link in the port channel and provides an aggregate result to client protocols. For example, if the BFD session for one link on a port channel is up, BFD informs client protocols such as open shortest path (OSPF) that the port channel is up. The BFD session parameters are negotiated between the BFD peers in a three-way handshake.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to enable BFD for port channel 3:
switch# configure terminalswitch(config)# interface port-channel 3switch(config-if)# bfd per-linkThis example shows how to configure the BFD session parameters for a port channel:
switch# configure terminalswitch(config)# interface port-channel 3switch(config-if)# bfd interval 50 min_rx 50 multiplier 3Related Commands

Usage Guidelines
Use the bfd slow-timer command to configure how fast a BFD session comes up. This value also sets the RequiredMinRx (or min_rx) value when echo mode is enabled.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows that the BFD slow timer value is configured to 14,000 milliseconds:
switch(config)# bfd slow-timer 14000This example shows that the BFD slow timer value of 14,000 milliseconds has been implemented. The values for the MinTxInt and MinRxInt correspond to the configured value for the BFD slow timer. The relevant command output is shown in bold.

carrier-delay
To set the carrier delay on an interface, use the carrier-delay command. To return to the default carrier delay value, use the no form of this command.
carrier-delay {sec | {msec value}}
no carrier-delay
Syntax Description
sec
Seconds of delay. The range is from 0 to 60.
msec
Specifies milliseconds of delay.
value
Milliseconds of delay. The range is from 0 to 1000.
Defaults
The default is 2 seconds or 100 milliseconds.
Command Modes

Supported User Rolesnetwork-admin
vdc-admin
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Note
If a link goes down and comes back up before the carrier delay timer expires, the down state is effectively filtered, and the rest of the software on the device is not aware that a link-down event occurred. A large carrier delay timer results in fewer link-up/link-down events being detected. When you set the carrier delay time to 0, the device detects each link-up/link-down event that occurs.
Note
In most environments, a lower carrier delay time is better than a higher one. The value that you choose depends on the nature of the link outages and how long you expect these linkages to last in your network. If your data links are subject to short outages (especially if those outages last less time than it takes for your IP routing to converge), you should set a long carrier delay value to prevent these short outages from causing unnecessary churn in your routing tables. However, if you outages tend to be longer, then you may want to set a shorter carrier delay time so that the outages are detected sooner, and the IP route convergence begins and ends sooner.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to set the carrier delay timer to 20 minutes for VLAN 6:
switch(config)#interface vlan 6switch(config-if)#carrier-delay 20switch(config-if)#Related Commands
channel-group
To assign and configure a physical interface to a port-channel group, use the channel-group command. To remove the channel-group configuration from the interface, use the no form of this command.
channel-group number [force] [mode {active | on | passive}]
no channel-group [number]
Syntax Description
number
Number of the channel group. The maximum number of port channels that can be configured is 256 across all virtual device contexts (VDCs), and the range is from 1 to 4096.
force
(Optional) Forces the interface to join the channel group, although some parameters are not compatible. For information on the compatibility parameters and which ones can be forced, see the Usage Guidelines section.
mode
Specifies the port-channel mode of the interface.
active
Specifies that when you enable the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), this command enables LACP on the specified interface. The interface is in an active negotiating state, in which the port initiates negotiations with other ports by sending LACP packets.
on
Specifies the default channel mode and all port channels that are not running LACP remain in this mode. If you attempt to change the channel mode to active or passive before enabling LACP, the device returns an error message.
After you enable LACP globally by using the feature lacp command, you enable LACP on each channel by configuring the channel mode as either active or passive. An interface in this mode does not initiate or respond to LACP packets. When an LACP attempts to negotiate with an interface in the on state, it does not receive any LACP packets and becomes an individual link with that interface; it does not join the channel group.The default mode is on.
passive
Specifies that when you enable LACP, this command enables LACP only if an LACP device is detected.The interface is in a passive negotiation state, in which the port responds to LACP packets that it receives but does not initiate LACP negotiation.
Defaults
None
Command Modes
Interface configuration mode
Supported User Rolesnetwork-admin
vdc-admin
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to create a channel group that includes the interface that you are working on and to add or remove specific interfaces from the channel group. Use this command to move a port from one channel group to another. You enter the channel group that you want the port to move to; the device automatically removes the specified port from its present channel group and adds that port to the specified channel group.
After you enable LACP globally by using the feature lacp command, you enable LACP on each channel by configuring the channel mode as either active or passive. A port channel in the on channel mode is a pure port channel and can aggregate a maximum of eight ports. It does not run LACP.
You cannot change the mode for an existing port channel or any of its interfaces if that port channel is not running LACP; the channel mode remains as on. The system returns an error message if you try.
All ports in one port channel must be in the same virtual device context (VDC). With LACP enabled, this requirement applies to the possible eight active ports and the possible eight standby ports. The port channels can originate in one VDC (with all ports in that channel in the same VDC) and partner with a port channel in another VDC (again, all ports in that channel must be in that VDC).
Use the no form of this command to remove the physical interface from the port channel. When you delete the last physical interface from a port channel, the port channel remains. To delete the port channel completely, use the no form of this interface port-channel command.
The compatibility check includes the following operational attributes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Use the show port-channel compatibility-parameters command to see the full list of compatibility checks that the Cisco NX-OS uses.
You can only add interfaces configured with the channel mode set to on to static port channels, that is without a configured aggregation protocol and you can only add interfaces configured with the channel mode as active or passive to port channels that are running LACP.
You can configure these attributes on an individual member port. If you configure a member port with an incompatible attribute, Cisco NX-OS suspends that port in the port channel.
Alternatively, you can force ports with incompatible parameters to join the port channel as long the following parameters are the same:
•
•
•
•
•
•
When the interface joins a port channel, some of its individual parameters are removed and replaced with the values on the port channel as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Many of the following interface parameters remain unaffected with the interface joins or leaves a port channel:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
If subinterfaces are configured for the port-channel interface and a member port is removed from the port channel, the configuration of the port-channel subinterface is not propagated to the member ports.
Any configuration changes that you make in any of the compatibility parameters to the port-channel interface are propagated to all interfaces within the same channel group as the port channel (for example, configuration changes are also propagated to the physical interfaces that are not part of the port channel but are part of the channel group).
You do not have to create a port-channel interface before you assign a physical interface to a channel group. A port-channel interface is created automatically when the channel group gets its first physical interface, if it is not already created.
You can create either a Layer 2 or a Layer 3 port channel by entering the interface port-channel command or when the channel group gets its first physical interface assignment. The port channels are not created at run time or dynamically.

Use the dual-active exclude interface-vlan command to ensure that those VLAN interfaces on the vPC secondary peer device that are carried on the vPC peer link but not by the vPC configuration do not go down if the vPC peer link fails. The VLAN interfaces must have already been configured.
Caution
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the device to keep the VLAN interfaces up on the vPC peer devices if the peer link fails:

Supported User Rolesnetwork-admin
vdc-adminCommand History
Usage Guidelines
The interface speed that you specify can affect the duplex mode used for an interface, so you should set the speed before setting the duplex mode. If you set the speed for autonegotiation, the duplex mode is automatically set to be autonegotiated. If you specify 10- or 100-Mbps speed, the port is automatically configured to use half-duplex mode, but you can specify full-duplex mode instead. Gigabit Ethernet is full duplex only. You cannot change the duplex mode on Gigabit Ethernet ports or on a 10/100/1000-Mbps port that is set for Gigabit Ethernet.
See the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Interfaces Configuration Guide, Release 5.x, for more information on interface speed and duplex settings.
This command does not require a license.

Usage Guidelines
Use the flowcontrol command to enable or disable the ability of the Ethernet port to send and receive flow-control pause frames.
Make sure that the remote port has the corresponding setting for the flow control that you need. If you want the local port to send flow-control pause frames, the remote port has a receive parameter set to on or desired. If you want the local port to receive flow-control frames, you must make sure that the remote port has a send parameter set to on or desired. If you do not want to use flow control, you can set the remote port's send and receive parameters to off.
For Ethernet ports that run at 1 Gbps or faster speed, you can enable or disable the port's ability to send and receive flow-control pause frames. For Ethernet ports that run slower than 1 Gbps, you can enable or disable only the port's ability to receive pause frames.
When enabling flow control for the local port, you either fully enable the local port to send or receive frames regardless of the flow-control setting of the remote port or you set the local port to use the desired setting used by the remote port. If you enable both the local and remote ports for flow control or set the desired flow control of the other port, or set a combination of those two states, flow control is enabled for those ports.
Note
To see how the different port flow-control states affect the link flow-control state, see Table 1.

Use the inherit port-profile command to do the following:
•
•
See the port-profile command and the state-enabled command for information about creating, configuring, and enabling port profiles.
If you attempt to inherit a port profile to the wrong type of interface, the system returns an error.
When you remove a port profile from a range of interfaces, the system undoes the configuration from the interfaces first and then removes the port-profile link. Also, when you remove a port profile, the system checks the interface configuration and either skips port-profile commands that have been overridden by directly entered interface commands or returns the command to the default value.
You can also choose a subset of interfaces from which to remove a port profile from those interfaces to which you originally applied the profile. For example, if you configured a port profile and configured 10 interfaces to inherit that port profile, you can remove the port profile from just some of the specified 10 interfaces. The port profile continues to operate on the remaining interfaces to which it is applied.
You use the port-profile configuration mode to remove an inherited port profile from an original port profile.

Command History
Usage Guidelines
You must enable the vPC feature before you can configure the peer-keepalive parameters. The vPC keepalive messages notify the system if one of the vPC peer devices goes down.
You must configure the peer-keepalive messages on each of the vPC peer devices to enable the functionality.
Although the keepalive messages can transmit over any Layer 3 topology, we recommend that you create and configure a separate VRF with Layer 3 ports on each vPC peer device as the source and destination for the vPC keepalive messages. The default ports and VRF for the peer-alive link are the management ports and the management VRF. Do not use the peer link itself for the vPC peer-keepalive messages.
Ensure that both the source and destination IP addresses used for the peer-keepalive messages are unique in your network.
The vPC keepalive messages are IP/UDP messages.
This command accepts only IPv4 addresses.
The device assumes that its vPC peer device is down when the device does not receive any messages from the peer during the timeout period. We recommend that you configure the timeout value to be three times the interval value.
You can configure either the precedence, tos, or tos-byte value to ensure throughput for the vPC peer-keepalive message.
Note
This command does not require a license.

4.0
This command was introduced.
5.1(3)
The word ethernet was removed from the command name.
Usage Guidelines
When you do not specify a module, you are configuring load balancing for the entire device. When you use the module parameter, you are configuring load balancing for the specified modules
Valid method values are as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Note
Use the module keyword to configure the module independently for port-channeling and load-balancing mode. The remaining module use the current load-balancing method configured for the entire device or the default method if you have not configured a method for the entire device. When you enter the no with the module keyword, the load-balancing method for the specified module takes the current load-balancing method that is in use for the entire device. If you configured a load-balancing method for the entire device, the specified module uses that configured method rather than the default src-dst-ip/src-dst-mac. The per module configuration takes precedence over the load-balancing method configured for the entire device.
You can configure one load-balancing mode for the entire device, a different mode for specified modules, and another mode for other specified modules. The per-module configuration takes precedence over the load-balancing configuration for the entire device.
Use the option that provides the balance criteria with the greatest variety in your configuration. For example, if the traffic on a port channel is going only to a single MAC address and you use the destination MAC address as the basis of port channel load balancing, the port channel always chooses the same link in that port channel; using source addresses or IP addresses might result in better load balancing.
This command does not require a license.

Usage Guidelines
If we use the command without force, it gives the user a chance to back off, since executing this command will reinitialize all the port-channels. If force is specified, it will not ask for user's input and will execute it right away.
By default when the system comes, the system allows M1 capability and so, the port-channel load-balance hash-modulo will throw an error. We need to change the capabilities by executing system module-type command to remove M1 first and then the port-channel command will work.

Usage Guidelines
Use the port-profile command to group configuration commands and apply them to several interfaces simultaneously. All interfaces in the range must be the same type. The maximum number of interfaces that can inherit a single port profile is 512.
The port-profile name must be globally unique across types and networks.
Each port profile can be applied only to a specific type of interface; the choices are as follows:
•
•
•
Note
A subset of commands are available under the port-profile configuration mode, depending on which interface type you specify. Layer 3 and CTS commands are not supported by port profiles.
You can configure the following port-profile operations:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
You inherit the port profile when you attach the port profile to an interface or range of interfaces. The maximum number of interfaces that can inherit a single profile is 512. When you attach, or inherit, a port profile to an interface or range of interfaces, the system applies all the commands in that port profile to the interfaces.
Additionally, you can have one port profile inherit another port profile, which allows the initial port profile to assume all of the commands of the second, inherited port profile that do not conflict with the initial port profile. Four levels of inheritance are supported except for the switchport private-vlan mapping and private-vlan mapping commands, which support only one level of inheritance. See the inherit port-profile command for information about inheriting an additional port profile and assigning port profiles to specified interfaces.
The system applies the commands inherited by the interface or range of interfaces according to the following guidelines:
•
•
•
•
•
Note
If you delete a specific configuration for a specified range of interfaces using the interface configuration mode, that configuration is also deleted from the port profile for that range of interfaces only. For example, if you have a channel group inside a port profile and you are in the interface configuration mode and you delete that port channel, the specified port channel is also deleted from the port profile as well.
Just as in the device, you can enter a configuration for an object in port profiles without that object being applied to interfaces. For example, you can configure a VRF instance without it being applied to the system. If you then delete that VRF and its configurations from the port profile, the system is unaffected.
After you inherit a port profile on an interface or range of interfaces and you delete a specific configuration value, that port-profile configuration does not operate on the specified interfaces.
You must enable each specific port profile using the state-enabled command.
This command does not require a license.

Usage Guidelines
Use the rate-mode dedicated command to set the dedicated rate mode for the specified ports.
On a 32-port ,10-Gigabit Ethernet module, each set of four ports can handle 10 gigabits per second (Gb/s) of bandwidth. You can use the rate-mode parameter to dedicate that bandwidth to the first port in the set of four ports or share the bandwidth across all four ports.
Note
Table 2 identifies the ports that are grouped together to share each 10 Gb/s of bandwidth and which port in the group can be dedicated to utilize the entire bandwidth.
Note
When you enter the rate-mode dedicated command, the full bandwidth of 10 Gbps is dedicated to one port. When you dedicate the bandwidth, all subsequent commands for the port are for dedicated mode.

This example shows how to configure a vPC device to assume that its peer is not functional and to bring up the vPC:
switch(config)# vpc domain 5switch(config-vpc-domain)# reload restoreWarning: Enables restoring of vPCs in a peer-detached state after reload, will wait for 240 seconds (by default) to determine if peer is un-reachableRelated Commands
role priority
To override the default selection of virtual port-channel (vPC) primary and secondary devices when you create a vPC domain, use the role priority command. To return to the default vPC system priority, use the no form of this command.

Command History
Usage Guidelines
You must enable the vPC feature before you can create a vPC system priority
By default, the system elects a primary and secondary vPC peer device after you configure the vPC domain and both sides of the vPC peer link. However, you may want the system to elect a specific vPC peer device as the primary device for the vPC. Then, you would manually configure the role value for the vPC peer device that you want as primary to be lower than that of the other vPC peer device.
This command does not require a license.
Examples
This example shows how to create a vPC role priority:
switch# config tswitch(config)# vpc domain 5switch(config-vpc-domain)# role priority 2000Related Commands
show vpc role
Displays the role for this device for the vPC domain as primary or secondary.

The LACP system ID is the combination of the configurable LACP system priority value and the MAC address.
Each system that runs LACP has an LACP system priority value. You can accept the default value of 32768 for this parameter, or you can configure a value between 1 and 65535. LACP uses the system priority with the MAC address to form the system ID and also uses the system priority during negotiation with other devices. A higher system priority value means a lower priority.
The system ID is different for each virtual device context (VDC).
This command does not require a license.

When you add an interface to a channel group, the software checks certain interface attributes to ensure that the interface is compatible with the channel group. For example, you cannot add a Layer 3 interface to a Layer 2 channel group. The software also checks the operational attributes for an interface before allowing that interface to participate in the port-channel aggregation.
This command displays the list of compatibility checks that the system uses.
Using the channel-group command, you can force ports with incompatible parameters to join the port channel as long as the following parameters are the same:
