set msmautostate
set msmautostate
To enable or disable the line protocol state determination of the MSMs due to port state changes, use the
set msmautostate command.
set msmautostate {enable | disable}
Syntax Description
Defaults The default configuration has line protocol state determination disabled.
Command Types Switch command.
Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines This feature is useful for discontinuing the advertisement of routing paths when access to them is severed
(either through fault or administrative disabling).
When you enable msmautostate, VLAN interfaces on the MSM are active only when there is at least
one other active interface within the Catalyst 6500 series switch. This could be a physical end-user port,
a trunk connection for which the VLAN is active, or even another MSM with an equivalent VLAN
interface.
If you disable msmautostate, you might have to use the shutdown and no shutdown commands to
disable and then restart the VLAN interface to bring the MSM back up.
Examples This example shows how to enable the line protocol state determination of the MSM:
Console> (enable) set msmautostate enable

This example shows how to disable the line protocol state determination of the MSM:
