Enabling Link Fault Signaling

The following task enables Link Fault Signaling (LFS) between two 10 Gbps Ethernet devices.

On RUCKUS FastIron devices, RX LFS is always enabled by default and cannot be disabled. The [no] link-fault-signal command only applies to enabling or disabling TX LFS.

  1. Enter global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. Enter the interface command, specifying an interface, to enter interface configuration mode for the specified interface. 
    device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
  3. Enter the link-fault-signal command to enable Link Fault Signaling (LFS) between two 10 Gbps Ethernet devices. 
    device(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)# link-fault-signal

The following example enables Link Fault Signaling (LFS) between two 10 Gbps Ethernet devices.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)# link-fault-signal
