[c-nsp] LACP and UDLD ?

[Jeff Fitzwater]

If I am running LACP between two Cisco switches, will it detect a unidirectional link (bad fiber one direction), or should I run UDLD also?

I would think LACP would detect a unidirectional link just because of the nature of the proto, and take down that channel port.

We may have to channel to a non cisco box, which does not support UDLD, so if LACP can deal with a unidirectional link I won't have to worry about UDLD.

Thanks,
