Description: This object specifies the method defined to identify the alternate port in the segment that takes part in VLAN load balancing by blocking a subset of VLANs after preemption.

'none' - no method is specified to identify the alternate port. In this case, the primary edge blocks all VLANs after preemption.

'offset' - identification is done by a number which indicates the offset of the port from an edge port. 'crepBlockPortNumInfo' defines the value.

'portId' - identification is done by the port identifier of the port. 'crepBlockPortIdInfo' defines the value.

'prefFlag' - to select the port in the segment that is configured as the preferred alternate port for VLAN load balancing.

While setting the value to 'offset' or 'portId', corresponding values for the value defining objects (mentioned along with the corresponding descriptions above) should also be provided, along with. Additionally, at least one of objects that define the VLANs to be blocked (crepifBlockedVlans1k, crepifBlockedVlans2k, crepifBlockedVlans3k, crepifBlockedVlans4k) should be provided with a non-empty value, when setting the value to anything other than 'none'.

This value is only effective on the device acting as the REP primary edge.
