Configuration Requirements. Before configuring switch meshing on any
ports in the Switches 1600M/2424M/4000M/8000M, it is necessary to activate
VLAN support. Notice that this does not require that you configure multiple
VLANs; only that VLAN support is activated. (See “Using the Console To
Configure Switch Meshing” on page 6-84.)
Bringing Up a Switch Mesh Domain: When a meshed port detects a non-
meshed port on the opposite end of a point-to-point connection, the link will
be blocked. Thus, as you bring up switch meshing on various switches, you
may temporarily experience blocked ports where meshed links should be
running. These conditions should clear themselves after all switches in the
mesh have been configured for meshing and then rebooted. To reduce the
effect of blocked ports during bring-up, configure meshing before installing
the meshed switches in the network.
