Frequently Asked Questions about ISL Trunking
Answers
No. DWDM is a ring, and if a failure occurs it
reroutes the allocated wavelength over alternate
routes, and therefore changes the effective
cable lengths.
If one of the trunk slave ports fails, the logical
ISL stays up, however, its capacity is reduced
by 2Gb/Sec, and no route failure or re-routing
of traffic occurs.
If a trunk master fails, the ISL goes down, and
FSFP perceives a momentary route failure. The
trunk immediately re-forms without the failed
ISL, and traffic resumes over the re-formed
trunk with capacity reduced by 2Gb/sec.
Yes. Trunks are automatically established on
available ports when the trunking feature is
enabled.
Yes.
No.
No.
No.
Not necessarily, it depends on the payload
variations at the frame level. While optimal
bandwidth utilization is the goal of the ISL
Trunking feature, traffic might not be
distributed exactly the same across all ISL links
within a trunk.
