Cabletron Systems Ethernet Hubs manual Test Redundant Circuits, Test Time of Day, Redundancy Table

Configuration View Description

Redundancy View

Test Redundant Circuits

This button allows you to test the redundant circuit.

Test Time of Day

The time of day at which the redundant circuits should be tested. This field is not available in the MRXI Redundancy View.

Redundancy Table

This button allows you to display the MMAC Redundancy Table. The Redundancy Table allows you to set up redundant circuit connections between any two or more hubs that have redundant capability in their firmware. For more information on setting up redundant circuits, refer to Hub Redundancy Management in this chapter.

You can double-click on any of the circuit names in the Redundancy Table to access the MMAC Redundancy Information View. This view lets you set up redundancy circuits. Table 4-3provides the information contained in the view.

Table 4-3.	MMAC Redundancy Information View Fields
	Field	Definition
	Circuit Name	The name of the indicated circuit.
	Retry Count	The number of unanswered polls allowed for the
		indicated circuit before the current connection is
		declared bad.
	Bd/Port Combination	The number of board/port combinations associated
		with the indicated circuit.
	MAC Address Add	Adds the Ethernet address to the polling list for the
	(IRM2, MRXI,	indicated circuit.
	MiniMMAC)
	IP Address Add (IRM3)	Adds the IP address to the polling list for the indicated
		circuit.
	Number of Addresses	The number of addresses associated with the indicated
		circuit.
	Circuit Enable	Enables or disables the indicated circuit.
	Circuit Number	The number from the circuit names in the Redundancy
		table (e.g., Circuit 04).
	Board Port Instance	The board number and port number that the
		redundant circuit is connected to. For example, 3.6 is
		board 3, port 6.
	Port Circuit Status	The current state of this port in the redundant circuit.
	Port Circuit Type	The type of port this port is in the redundant circuit.
