Conguring FEFD
You can congure FEFD for all interfaces from CONFIGURATION mode, or on individual interfaces from INTERFACE mode.
To enable FEFD globally on all interfaces, use the following command.
Enable FEFD globally on all interfaces.
CONFIGURATION mode
fefd-global
To report interval frequency and mode adjustments, use the following commands.
1 Setup two or more connected interfaces for Layer 2 or Layer 3.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip address, switchport
2 Enable the necessary ports administratively.
INTERFACE mode
no shutdown
3 Enable fefd globally.
CONFIGURATION mode
fefd-global {interval | mode}
Example of the show fefd Command
To display information about the state of each interface, use the show fefd command in EXEC privilege mode.
DellEMC#show fefd
FEFD is globally 'ON', interval is 3 seconds, mode is 'Normal'.
INTERFACE MODE INTERVAL STATE
(second)
Te 1/1 Normal 3 Bi-directional
Te 1/2 Normal 3 Admin Shutdown
Te 1/3 Normal 3 Admin Shutdown
Te 1/4 Normal 3 Admin Shutdown
DellEMC#show run fefd
!
fefd-global mode normal
fefd-global interval 3
Enabling FEFD on an Interface
To enable, change, or disable FEFD on an interface, use the following commands.
Enable FEFD on a per interface basis.
INTERFACE mode
fefd
Change the FEFD mode.
