ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide 1635
configure aps manual
configure aps <group#> manual [off | working | protection]
Description
Manually determines whether an APS group uses its working line or its protection line as the active
line.
Syntax Description
Default
The default is
manual off
.
Usage Guidelines
You specify the
group#
parameter, which is an integer in the range [1-65535]. The
group#
identifies the
APS group that the command applies to. When
manual working
is specified, the command requests
that the APS group uses the working line as the active line. Conversely, when
manual protection
is
specified, the command requests that the APS group uses the protection line as the active line. One
potential use of the
manual working
command is to switch back to the working line after an error
condition has cleared without waiting for the full wait-to-restore period to elapse. A manual switch is a
lower priority request than a forced switch. events that can override a manual switch include: (1) a
manual off
command, (2) a
force working
or a force protection command, (3) a
lockout on
command, or (4) a signal-fail or signal degrade line condition. This command is only applicable to
SONET ports performing the protection line function. Additionally, the effects of this command are not
preserved across a switch reboot.
Example
The following command example configures APS group
1001
to use its working line as the active line:
config aps 1001 manual working
