show failover trigger
Command mode:
All
A monitor port’s Failover status is Operational only if all the following conditions hold true:
 Port link is up.
 If Spanning-Tree is enabled, the port is in the Forwarding state.
 If the port is a member of an LACP trunk group, the port is aggregated.
If any of the above conditions are not true, the monitor port is considered to be failed.
A control port is considered to be operational if the monitor trigger state is Up. Even if a port’s link
status is Down, Spanning-Tree status is Blocking, and the LACP status is Not Aggregated,
from a teaming perspective the port status is Operational, since the trigger is Up.
A control port’s status is displayed as Failed only if the monitor trigger state is Down.
