The smart-link flush receive password command specifies an encryption mode and a password for Flush packets on all interfaces.
The undo smart-link flush receive password command deletes the encryption mode and a password for Flush packets on all interfaces.
By default, no encryption mode or password is configured for Flush packets on all interfaces.

Description |
Value |
|---|---|---|
simple |
Indicates that the password for sending Flush packets is in plain text. NOTE:
The password is saved in the configuration file in cipher text for security. |
- |

Indicates that the password for sending Flush packets is in SHA mode. NOTE:
The password is saved in the configuration file in cipher text for security. |

Usage Scenario
You can run the smart-link flush receive password command to specify an encryption mode and a password for Flush packets on all interfaces.
Prerequisites
The downstream device has been enabled to send Flush packets by using the flush send command.
Precautions
The password configured in a control VLAN on an interface that is enabled to receive flush packets takes precedence over the password configured globally. If the password on an interface is not configured, the interface configured globally is used.
For security purposes, you are advised to use SHA as the authentication algorithm of Smart Link.
