Description

Field

If a failure occurred, the number that represents the reason for the failure. The
switch supports the following codes:

• 1: Insufficient bandwidth

• 3: Insufficient bandwidth for the traffic class

• 5: Stream destination address is already in use

• 7: Reported latency changed

• 8: Egress port is not capable of audio video bridging (AVB)

• 9: Use a different destination address (for example, if the MAC DA hash

table is full)

• 12: Cannot store destination address (for example, if the device ran out of

MAC DA resources)

• 13: Requested priority is not an SR class priority

• 14: MaxFrameSize is too large for media

• 15: msrpMaxFanInPorts limit was reached

• 16: Changes in FirstValue for a registered StreamID

• 17: VLAN is blocked on this egress port (Registration Forbidden)

Loop protection

Loop protection can detect physical and logical loops between Ethernet ports on the
switch.

Loops inside a network can be costly because they consume resources and reduce the
performance of the network. Detecting loops manually can be cumbersome. The switch
can automatically identify loops in the network. You can enable loop protection per
globally and per port.

If loop protection is enabled, the switch sends predefined protocol data unit (PDU)
packets to a Layer 2 broadcast destination address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) on all ports for
which the feature is enabled. You can selectively disable PDU packet transmission for
loop protection on specific ports even while port loop protection is enabled. If the switch
receives a packet with the previously mentioned broadcast destination address, the
source MAC address in the packet is compared with the MAC address of the switch. If
the MAC address does not match, the packet is forwarded to all ports that are members
