Chapter 14 – Configuring Link Backup

Note: If you delete a link backup configuration that has failed over (or is failing over) to its backup trunk the link daemon will stop attempting the link backup and restore the main trunk, even if the main trunk is still down.

Link Backup Logs

Figure 133: Link Backup Log

The link backup log displays the log of recent backup events.

Link Backup Status

Figure 134: Link Backup Status

The link backup status menu displays the status of links managed by the feature.

Test Link Backup

Figure 135: Test Link Backup

The test link backup menu tests a link backup by discarding all data received on the main interface. This convinces the daemon that the main trunk is unusable and forces it to fail over to the backup trunk.
