Managing Redundant Cards
The MGX switches support redundancy between two cards of the same type. For PXM1E, PXM45, and
SRM cards, this redundancy is preconfigured on the switch. To establish redundancy between two
CBSMs (for example, CESM, AUSM, FRSM, and VISM), two AXSMs, or two FRSM12s, you can enter
the addred command as described in the “
Establishing Redundancy Between Two Service Modules
”
section in
Chapter 4, “Preparing Service Modules for Communication.”
The following sections describe how to
•
Display the redundancy configuration
•
Switch operation from one card to the other
•
Remove the redundancy between two service modules
Displaying Redundancy Status
To display the redundancy configuration for the switch, use the following procedure.
Step 1
Establish a configuration session at any access level.
Step 2
To view the redundancy status, enter the following command:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a >
dspred
