Command Usage
When setting the backup-port of the smart pair the following limitations are
enforced:
Spanning-Tree must be disabled on the port.
A configured backup port can only be a member of a single smart pair.
Dynamic trunk ports cannot be configured as a smart pair port (only static
trunk ports).
When a trunk group is identified as a backup port of a smart pair, any members
removed from the trunk group will not retain the smart pair settings.
When all members of trunk group set as a backup port are removed, the
backup port is also removed.
The VLAN mode of the backup port should not be changed after it is
configured otherwise the behavior becomes unpredictable.
Example
Console(config-smart-pair)#backup-port ethernet 1/2
