About the Topology-Dependent Parameters

The topology configuration menu is a series of guided questions relating to the deployment of the SCE 1000 in the network and its mode of operation. Values for the parameters are configured based on the user answers.

The correct value for each parameter must be ascertained before configuring the system to make sure that the system will function in the desired manner.

There are three topology-related parameters:

•Connection mode — Can be either Inline or Receive-only, depending on the physical installation of the SCE 1000.

•Bypass state when the SCE 1000 is not operational (on-failure) — This parameter determines whether the system cuts the traffic or bypasses it when the SCE 1000 has failed.

•Status after reboot caused by fatal error or abnormal shutdown — This parameter determines whether the SCE 1000 returns to normal operational state after a failure.

•The procedure described below is a hypothetical presentation of all the questions in the topology configuration. In actual practice, it is impossible for all questions to be presented in any one configuration, as this part of the dialog is not linear like the other sections, but branches depending on the parameter values entered.

Study the examples that follow to understand the procedure for various topologies.

Step 1 Enter the topology configuration menu.

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

•Enter your password if prompted.

Type y and press press Enter.

The topology configuration dialog begins.

Step 2 Specify the connection mode.

•To define inline connection mode, press press Enter.

•To define receive-onlyconnection mode, type 2 and press press Enter.

Enter Connection mode: 1- inline

2- receive-only
