1-2 

The master port can be either an Ethernet port or a manually-configured or static LACP aggregation 

group. For example, you can configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 of switch A in 

 as the master 

port through the command line.  

The slave port can be either an Ethernet port or a manually-configured or static LACP aggregation 

group. For example, you can configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 of switch A in 

 as the slave port 

through the command line. 

When a forwarding link fails, the device will switch the traffic to the blocked standby link. The former 

forwarding entries of each device in the network are no longer suitable for the new topology, so MAC 

address forwarding entries and ARP entries must be updated throughout the network. In this case, the 

Smart Link group sends flush messages to notify other devices to refresh MAC address forwarding 

entries and ARP entries.  

This control VLAN sends flush messages. When link switching occurs, the device (Switch A in 

) broadcasts flush messages in this control VLAN.  

This control VLAN is used for receiving and processing flush messages. When link switching occurs, 

the devices (Switch B and Switch C in 

) receive and process flush messages of this control 

VLAN, and then refresh MAC forwarding table entries and ARP entries.  

 

z 

Currently, the member ports of a Smart Link group cannot be dynamic link aggregation groups. 

z 

If the master port or slave port of a Smart Link group is a link aggregation group, you cannot 

remove this link aggregation group directly or change the aggregation group into a dynamic 

aggregation group. Before removing this aggregation group, you must unbind the link aggregation 

group from the Smart Link.
