Configuration
Configuring the High Availability Feature for X.25 over LLC2
|
| XOL_floating_macaddr <unique MAC address> |
|
|
|
NOTE |
| Local failover is automatically enabled by defining a standby_device in |
|
| the configuration file. If you do not require the local failover feature for |
|
| this interface, you must |
|
| commenting the line in the configuration file. The standby XOL interface |
|
| inherits the configuration of the primary XOL interface during failover |
|
| because the same configuration file is used to configure the XOL |
|
| interface. |
|
|
|
Example |
| Configuring Standby Device and Unique MAC Address |
|
| If the asumptions in the XOL configuration file are the following: |
|
| • The primary LAN card is lan0 |
|
| • The standby LAN card is lan1 |
|
| • The MAC address is 0x0060B0A4EbE5 |
|
| Then, the XOL HA parameters take the following values: |
standby_device | lan1 |
XOL_floating_macaddr 0x0060B0A4EBE5
NOTE |
| In the event of a failover, the XOL_floating_macaddr is moved from the |
|
| primary LAN card to the standby LAN card. HP recommends that you |
|
| use the primary and standby LAN cards only for the XOL links |
|
| configured with HA feature. |
|
|
|
Step | 3. To initialize the XOL HA interface with local failover support, run the | |
|
| following command: |
|
| x25init |
