•Switchover Time displays how high the Time Since Detection will count before the interface switches, either from Primary to Backup or from Backup to Primary.
This field is only visible if Backup or Recovery is set to Automatic.
When the current interface is Primary and a backup condition exists Switchover Time will display one of two values:
•If the last backup event was on layer 2 and
•If this is the first backup event, or the last backup event was on layer 1, it will display the Requires Failure of value.
When the current interface is the Backup interface and a recovery condition exists, it will display the Requires Recovery of value.
The displayed value does not change. Rather it indicates how high the Time Since Detection must count before the switchover occurs.
•The FORCE BACKUP/FORCE RECOVERY option is a selectable option that, depending on the current state of backup, will force the switching of gateways. If you are currently in backup mode, the option will be FORCE RECOVERY. If you are currently in primary mode, the option will be FORCE BACKUP. Selecting either one and pressing Return will force the link to switch to the other mode.
