Example of manual redundancy configuration
To use manual trunk port redundancy, you modify the profile of a primary trunk port to specify
a spare trunk port and enable manual sparing. For example, the following commands specify
that the first port in slot 17 is a primary trunk port, designate the first trunk port in slot 18 as its
spare, and invoke the sparing function manually:
admin> read oc3-atm {1 trunk-module-1 1}
OC3-ATM/{ shelf-1 trunk-module-1 1 } read
admin> set spare-physical-address shelf = 1
admin> set spare-physical-address slot = 18
admin> set spare-physical-address item-number = 1
admin> set sparing-mode = manual
admin> write
OC3-ATM/{ shelf-1 trunk-module-1 1 } written
To deactivate the spare trunk port and activate the primary port again, set the Sparing-Mode to
inactive
. For example:
admin> read oc3-atm {1 trunk-module-1 1}
OC3-ATM/{ shelf-1 trunk-module-1 1 } read
admin> set sparing-mode = inactive
admin> write
OC3-ATM/{ shelf-1 trunk-module-1 1 } written
