Usage

Split recovery mode prevents traffic loss when the ISL goes out-of-sync and keepalive subsequently fails. When the ISL goes out-of-sync and keepalive is established, the secondary VSX LAGs are brought down. If keepalive then also fails, this situation causes a split condition. In this case, if split recovery mode is enabled, the secondary switch restores its VSX LAGs so they are up.

When split recovery mode is disabled during a split condition, the secondary switch keeps it VSX LAGs down.

Examples

Enabling split recovery mode:

switch(config-vsx)# split-recovery

Disabling split recovery mode:

switch(config-vsx)# no split-recovery
