ICX 7150. How force VLAN interface (VE) to stay always UP?

[nikita_kulikov]

Hi!

I need VLAN interface (VE) on ICX7150 (router) always be in state "UP" when all the ports in the VLAN go into an inactive state.
Is there analog of command "no autostate" (Cisco)?

Hi Nik,

Hope you are doing Great!


You can have a loopback that will stay up but not on a physical ve interface.

config t
interface loopback 1
ip address a.b.c.d/f

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Thanks for answer, Hashim.

But I can't bind a loopback interface to certain VLAN, can I?

Hi Nik,


I do not think we can bind the loopback to an ve. 

What are you trying to achieve here.
the more details the better, so we can figure out a workaround.

Thanks
