Transition of Control from Primary Controller
to LSP
When the network connection between the G700 and the S8500 or S8700 goes down, control of
endpoints connected to the G700 goes to the next point in the primary controller list, which will be either
a second CLAN board or the LSP. At this point, the S8500 or S8700 alarms to notify the customer and
services personnel that the network connection between the S8500 or S8700 and G700 has problems. If
control passes to the LSP, the LSP’s license allows it to support the G700 endpoints for up to 10 days,
within which the network problems should be resolved.
The customer must pass control back to the S8500 or S8700 manually, by selecting Shutdown this
server from the S8300 web page (includes selecting the option to restart after shutdown), or a tech nici an
must run reset system 4 from the Linux command line. When the system reboots, the G700 and its
endpoints reregister with the primary controller, in this case the S8500 or S8700.
