Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Disabled
Down Enabled
Disabled: When this feature is disabled, both fiber ports will
operate as independent ports on a switch. Normal switch rules and
functions will apply.
Enabled: When this feature is enabled, fiber port 1 will be the
primary active fiber connection port and fiber port 2 will be in
standby and in an inactive state. Should a loss of link occur on
fiber port 1, fiber port 2 will be activated within 50 ms. The MAC
caching table for fiber port 2 will be cleared and the switch will
begin to re-learn Mac address routing. See Redundant Primary for
information on link connections.
Redundant Primary (Switch 8) Note: This switch is used in conjunction with the Fiber
Redundancy feature to determine the behaviour after link
restoration.
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Disabled
Down Enabled
Disabled: Following the loss of link on fiber port 1 and the
activation of fiber port 2, fiber port 2 will remain the primary port
until its link is lost at which time a switch over to fiber port 1 will
occur.
Enabled: Fiber port 1 will be designated as the Primary fiber port.
If a loss of link occurs on fiber port 1 which causes a switch over to
fiber port 2, the S-1110P will monitor fiber port 1 for link
restoration. Once the link is re-established and remains so for 6
seconds, fiber port 1 will be re-activated and fiber port 2 will be put
back into stand-by-mode.
