CLI: Configuring Switch Meshing
All meshed ports on a switch belong to the same mesh domain. Thus, to
configure multiple meshed ports on a switch, you need to:
1. Specify the ports you want to operate in the mesh domain.
2. Use write memory to save the configuration to the startup-config file.
3. Reboot the switch. For switches with redundant management modules,
such as 8200zl switches, you must reboot both management modules. Use
the boot system … command.
For example, to configure meshing on ports A1-A4, B3, C1, and D1-D3:
Figure 4-9. Example of How To Configure Ports for Meshing
To remove a port from meshing, use the “no” version of mesh, followed by write
memory and rebooting the switch. For example, to remove port C1 from the
mesh:
