8.2.2.1 SFP option
The SFP option allows the connection of different devices to the IP input. Depending on the SFP device various management and media
types can be connected to the A-PALIOS-IPM4CI. So the IP input can be expanded by another IP data source. The SFP device requires
stream port 2, with the result that either “Stream port 1“ or “Stream port 2“ can be used as an IP input.
One of the two IP inputs can be defined as the preferred source and the other IP input as redundancy source. If an IP data source fails,
it‘ll switch to the other data source. Individual rules can be defined. First you have to decide whether an IP input channel is included in
the monitoring. In addition, you have to choose when to switch: either when one input channel fails or when all monitored channels are
failing. The switching will occur even no signal is present on the redundancy input.
The switch back to the preferred IP input is not automatically.
It has to be done manually via the user interface. Note that an
automatic switch based on the defined rules will not occur until data was received on the monitored channels once.
In the mask of the network settings the option of selecting the preferred IP input is displayed. The selection is done by pressing the
respective option button.
Select the line „
error check of the channels
“ as described above. Choose „or“ to perform the redundancy switchover if any one of the
monitored channels is failing. Choose „and“ to perform the redundancy switchover if all monitored channels fail.
The checkbox on the right side marks if the channel is included in the monitoring.
