Usage Guidelines
A UDLD-capable port cannot detect a unidirectional link if it is connected to a UDLD-incapable port of
another device.
UDLD supports two modes of operation: normal (the default) and aggressive. In normal mode, UDLD detects
unidirectional links due to misconnected interfaces on fiber-optic connections. In aggressive mode, UDLD
also detects unidirectional links due to one-way traffic on fiber-optic and twisted-pair links and due to
misconnected interfaces on fiber-optic links.
To enable UDLD in normal mode, use the udld port interface configuration command. To enable UDLD in
aggressive mode, use the udld port aggressive interface configuration command.
Use the no udld port command on fiber-optic ports to return control of UDLD to the udld enable global
configuration command or to disable UDLD on nonfiber-optic ports.
Use the udld port aggressive command on fiber-optic ports to override the setting of the udld enable or udld
aggressive global configuration command. Use the no form on fiber-optic ports to remove this setting and to
return control of UDLD enabling to the udld global configuration command or to disable UDLD on
nonfiber-optic ports.
You can use these commands to reset an interface shut down by UDLD:
•
The udld reset privileged EXEC command resets all interfaces shut down by UDLD.
