Configure Link Services Differential Delay

For link services interfaces configured with MLFR (FRF.16), the differential delay between links in a bundle is measured and warning is given when a link has a substantially greater differential delay than other links in the same bundle. The implementing end point can determine if the differential delay is in an acceptable range and decide to remove the link from the bundle, or to stop transmission on the link.

You can configure the yellow differential delay for links in a bundle by including the yellow-differential-delay statement at the [edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel mlfr-uni-nni-bundle-options] hierarchy level:

[edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel minimum-links]

yellow-differential-delay milliseconds;

The yellow differential delay can be from 3 through 2000 milliseconds. The default is 6 milliseconds.

You can configure the red differential delay for links in a bundle to give warning by including the red-differential-delay statements at the [edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel mlfr-uni-nni-bundle-options] hierarchy level:

[edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel minimum-links]

red-differential-delay milliseconds;

The red differential delay can be from 5 through 2000 milliseconds. The default is 10 milliseconds.

You can configure the action to be taken when differential delay exceeds the red limit by including the action-red-differential-delay red statements at the [edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel mlfr-uni-nni-bundle-options] hierarchy level:

[edit interfaces ls-fpc/pic/port:channel minimum-links]

action-red-differential-delay (disable-tx | remove-link);

The disable-tx option disables transmission on the link. The remove-link option removes the link from the bundle. The default action is disable-tx.
