Automatic recovery of an Err-disabled interface

The Dell EMC Networking OS attempts to recover the interface from the Err-disabled state automatically based on the cause of the error.

You can configure the Dell EMC Networking OS to recover an interface from Err-disabled state automatically, if the interface is changed to Err-disabled state due to the following:
  • BPDU Guard

  • FEFD

  • MAC learning limit

  • ARP inspection

Based on the automatic recovery configuration, when the interface is changed to Err-disabled state, the Dell EMC Networking OS invokes a timer for the configured time-out interval. Upon expiration of the timer, the interface is moved to operationally up state if the encountered error is fixed. If not, the interface is again moved to Err-disabled state again.

Dell EMC Networking OS generates syslog message for Err-disabled recovery when:
  • The timer is started for recovery of an interface

  • The recovery action is complete

Following is the sample syslog displayed when the timer for Err-disable recovery is started:
May 8 17:18:57 %STKUNIT1-M:CP %IFMGR-5-ERR_DIS_RECOVERY_TIMER_START: 180 seconds timer started to attempt recovery of interface Gi 2/18 from error disabled state caused by bpdu-guard.
Following is the sample syslog displayed when the recovery action is complete:
May 8 17:21:57 %STKUNIT1-M:CP %IFMGR-5-ERR_DIS_RECOVERY_COMPLETE: Error Disable Recovery timer expired for interface Gi 2/18.
