This section presents CLI commands relevant to the configuration and monitoring of a redundant system.
Topology-Related Parameters for Redundant Topologies
All four of the topology-related parameters are required when configuring a redundant topology.
•
Connection mode
— Redundancy is achieved by cascading two SCE platforms. Therefore the
connection mode for both SCE platforms may be either:
–
Inline-cascade
–
Receive-only-cascade
•
Physically-connected-links
— For each of the cascaded SCE platforms, this parameter defines the
number of the link (Link 0 or Link 1) connected to this SCE platform.
•
Priority
— For each of the cascaded SCE platforms, this parameter defines whether it is the primary
or secondary device.
•
On-failure
— For each of the cascaded SCE platforms, this parameter determines whether the
system cuts the traffic or bypasses it when the SCE platform either has failed or is booting.
Configuring the Connection Mode
Use the following command to configure the connection mode, including the following parameters.
•
inline/receive only
•
physically connected links
•
behavior upon failure of the SCE platform
•
primary/secondary
To configure the connection mode, use the following command.
Step 1
From the SCE 2000 (config if)# prompt, type
connection-mode inline-cascade|receive-only-cascade
[physically-connected-links {link-0|link-1}][priority {primary|secondary}] [on-failure
{bypass|cutoff}]
and press
Enter
