Chapter 3 Configuring the XDQA24 System
Note: After changing the MAC Addresses parameter the device has to be rebooted.
Rebooting can be done by pointing to the Please Reboot Device link and clicking on
the Reboot command button. The Please Reboot Device link is only displayed if a
reboot of the device is required.
Tip: When several settings must be changed this reboot action can be postponed until
all settings are configured properly.
Remark: It is possible that the delay time to switch from main to backup or backup to
main is bigger then indicated in the delay settings. This is due to the IGMP reports
that must be sent after a port is activated. The time needed to send these IGMP
reports depends on the number of multicast groups the device is working with.
