Configure ULFD Parameters
					
						
Configuration Condition
Before configuring the ULFD parameters, first complete the following task:
Configure Sending Period of ULFD Detection Packet
ULFD periodically sends the detection packets to detect whether the network has the uni-directional link. We can modify the sending period of the detection packets according to the actuality of the network. The sending period of the detection packets is 7-90s. By default, it is 15s.

Reset Ethernet Interface Disabled by ULFD
If ULFD detects the uni-direction and disables the Ethernet interface, to re-enable the ULFD detection function of the Ethernet interface, the user needs to perform the reset operation manually. The operation sets the Ethernet interface to UP and re-enables the ULFD detection.
