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 Cisco SCE platforms. Therefore the
connection mode for both Cisco SCE platforms may be either:
–
Inline-cascade
–
Receive-only-cascade
•
sce-id—
For each of the cascaded Cisco SCE platforms, this parameter defines the number of the
link (0 or 1) connected to this Cisco SCE platform.
The sce-id parameter, which identifies the Cisco SCE platform, replaces the
physically-connected-link parameter, which identified the link. This change was required with the
introduction of the Cisco SCE 8000 GBE platform, which supports multiple links. In the Cisco SCE
8000 10GBE, the number assigned to the sce-id parameter (0 or 1) will be defined as the of number
of the physically-connected-link.
Note
For backwards compatibility, the physically-connected-link parameter is currently still recognized.
•
Priority—
For each of the cascaded Cisco SCE platforms, this parameter defines whether it is the
primary or secondary device.
•
On-failure—
For each of the cascaded Cisco SCE platforms, this parameter determines whether the
system cuts the traffic or bypasses it when the Cisco 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
•
sce-id (physically connected link)
•
behavior upon failure of the Cisco SCE platform
•
primary/secondary
To configure the connection mode, use the following command.
