Configuring Ethernet Redundancy
The system supports redundancy between 0\1 and 0\2 ethernet interface or between 1\1 or 1\2 Ethernet interface.
The system, automatically while detects a malfunction in the working Ethernet (for example link down), switches to
the protecting (redundant) Ethernet interface.
Using the port-ethernet redundancy-enable command
Use this command to configure Ethernet port redundancy.
Usage
port-ethernet redundancy-enable <working slot>\<working port> <protection
slot>\<protection port> <non-revertive | revertive>
Parameter(s)
<working slot>
This is the working Ethernet interface slot number; valid values include 1 or 2.
<working port>
This is the working Ethernet interface physical port number; the value range is 1 to 3.
<protecting slot>
This is the protecting Ethernet interface slot number; valid values include 1 or 2.
<protecting port>
This is the protecting Ethernet interface physical port number; the value range is 1 to 3.
