CLI Commands for Cascaded Systems
From the SCE (config if)# prompt, type:
Examples
EXAMPLE 1
Use the following command to configure the primary Cisco SCE platform in a two-Cisco SCE platform
inline topology. Link 1 is connected to this Cisco SCE platform and the behavior of the Cisco SCE
platform if a failure occurs is
bypass
, which is the default.
SCE(config-if)#connection-mode inline-cascade sce-id 1 priority primary
EXAMPLE 2
Use the following command to configure the Cisco SCE platform that might be cascaded with the Cisco
SCE platform in Example 1. This Cisco SCE platform would have to be the secondary Cisco SCE
platform, and Link 0 would be connected to this Cisco SCE platform, since Link 1 was connected to the
primary. The connection mode would be the same as the first, and the behavior of the Cisco SCE
platform if a failure occurs is external-bypass.
SCE(config-if)# connection-mode inline-cascade sce-id 0 priority secondary on-failure
external-bypass
Monitoring the System
Use the following commands to view the current connection mode and link mode parameters.
How to View the Current Connection Mode
