Global L2 Loop Protection question on M4300-52G-PoE+

I was testing the L2 Loop Protection capability of my M4300-52G-PoE+ stack by connecting ports 4/0/1 and 4/0/5 together, and the protection seemed to work great, putting port 4/0/1 in a D-Disable state.

 

My question is, after correcting such a state by disconnecting the loop, how do I go about taking the port out of a D-Disable state and putting it back into an Enable state?  I see no option to reenable the port via the browser GUI under Switching -> L2 Loop Protection and I'd like to know if the only way to renable the port is to completely reboot the entire stack?

 

Thanks,

  • Nevermind.  After doing some additional digging, I found the option to reenable the port under Switching -> Ports, so I was able to answer my own question.
