Controller Active and Standby

Controller Active and Standby

The Axxius 800 can function fully with a single Controller card, however Controller redundancy is available with two like Controllers (DS1 or DS3) installed. When two Controllers are installed in a system, one is always Active and the other is Standby. The Standby can have 2 conditions:

λHot Standby - meaning that the card is ready to take over for the active and the switch will not affect service

λCold Standby - meaning that the card is ready to go active (healthy) but for some reason (code of the 2 controllers is not the same) it will need to reconfigure the box when it goes active, which will be service affecting.

There are two ways to identify the status of the Controllers.
