Spirent TestCenter: Why are both egress ports going offline during a BGP convergence test.

Environment/Versions
  • Spirent TestCenter.
  • BGP Local Interface Failure convergence test
Answer
  • During this test, the Primary Egress Port link switches to an inactive state while the Secondary Egress Port remains active.
  • If both ports are in the same port group, when the wizard/test executes the break-link command to test BGP convergence both ports will become unavailable.
  • The recommendation is to use ports on different port groups to run these tests.
