How Uplink Failure Detection Works

UFD creates an association between upstream and downstream interfaces. The association of uplink and downlink interfaces is called an uplink-state group.

An interface in an uplink-state group can be a physical interface or a port-channel (LAG) aggregation of physical interfaces.

An enabled uplink-state group tracks the state of all assigned upstream interfaces. Failure on an upstream interface results in the automatic disabling of downstream interfaces in the uplink-state group. As a result, downstream devices can execute the protection or recovery procedures they have in place to establish alternate connectivity paths, as shown in the following illustration.

If only one of the upstream interfaces in an uplink-state group goes down, a specified number of downstream ports associated with the upstream interface are put into a Link-Down state. You can configure this number and is calculated by the ratio of the upstream port bandwidth to the downstream port bandwidth in the same uplink-state group. This calculation ensures that there is no traffic drops due to insufficient bandwidth on the upstream links to the routers/switches.

By default, if all upstream interfaces in an uplink-state group go down, all downstream interfaces in the same uplink-state group are put into a Link-Down state.

Using UFD, you can configure the automatic recovery of downstream ports in an uplink-state group when the link status of an upstream port changes. The tracking of upstream link status does not have a major impact on central processing unit (CPU) usage.
