11.8.4 Configuring RBSs
Configuring RBSs includes the operation of configuring a TCP port and an interface to be
listened to for a remote server, binding a NAT instance to an RBS, and configuring protection
paths for access users.
Context
Perform the following steps on the devices that back up each other.
Procedure
Step 1
Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2
Run:
remote-backup-service
service-name
The remote backup service view is displayed.
Step 3
Run:
peer
peer-ip-address
source
source-ip-address
port
port-id
The TCP connection with the remote server is set up.
The
peer-ip-address
parameter specifies the IP address of the peer device; the
local-ip-
address
parameter specifies the IP address of the local device. The IP address of the peer device
must have been set on a main interface, sub-interface, or logical interface (such as a loopback
interface) of the peer device. Similarly, the IP address of the local device must have been set on
a main interface, sub-interface, or logical interface (such as a loopback interface) of the local
device. In addition, the two IP addresses can be pinged successfully.
port-id
specifies the number
of the interface that is listened to by the server. The numbers of the interfaces for the TCP
connection must be the same on the two devices that back up each other.
NOTE
The port with the number 6000 is preserved for other protocols and is currently unavailable.
Step 4
Run:
track interface
interface-name
The RBS is configured to track the network-side interface status. In this manner, the NE80E/
40E can detect the fault occurrence or recovery of the TCP connection established by the RBS.
Step 5
Run:
nat-instance
instance-name
A NAT instance is bound to the RBS.
NOTE
The same NAT instance name must be configured for two devices that back up each other.
Step 6
Perform either of the following operations to configure protection paths for access users:
