Chapter 5 Connecting the Management Interfaces and Performing Initial System Configuration

Initial System Configuration

To specify Cutoff, type 2 and press Enter.

Enter On-failure behavior: 1- bypass

2- cutoff

Enter your choice [1]:

Step 4 Specify the admin status of the SCE 1000 after abnormal boot.

To specify Not-Operationalstatus after abnormal boot, press Enter.

To specify Operational status after abnormal boot, type 1 and press Enter.

Enter admin status of the SCe after abnormal boot: 1- Operational

2- Not-Operational Enter your choice [1]:

The following examples present the procedure for configuring the topology-related parameters for various topologies. Refer the Topology Configuration Summary Table (on page 3-9) for a summary of appropriate values for the parameters for each topology.

EXAMPLE #1:

Following is a sample topology configuration for a topology using an external switch.

All other parameter values are automatically assigned by the system as follows:

Link bypass mode on-failure — Bypass

Admin status of the SCE after abnormal boot — Operational

Would you like to enter the Topology configuration menu? [no]: y Enter Connection mode:

1- inline

2- receive-only

Enter your choice [1]: 2

EXAMPLE #2:

Following is a sample topology configuration for a non-redundant bump-in-the-wire (inline) topology. All values are the system default values, so it is not necessary to type in the response. Simply press enter at each line.

Connection mode — Inline

For a non-redundant topology, link bypass on-failure should be Bypass, so that traffic continues to flow through the link.

After operation of the system resumes, and the SCE 1000 reboots, the SCE 1000 will resume operation. (Admin status after abnormal reboot is Operational.)
