Port Classification
Overview
With the P330, you can classify any port as regular or valuable. Setting a port to
valuable means that, in case of Ethernet link failure of that port, a link fault trap can
be sent even when the port is disabled and a fast aging operation on the CAM table
will be performed. This feature is particularly useful for the link/intermodule
redundancy application, where you need to be informed about a link failure on the
dormant port and resume traffic quickly.
