Changing the Backup Interface Settings
Introduction
For port backup purposes the GbE ports of the XDQA24 system can be configured in
such a way that the inactive port takes over the active port if the GbE link on the
active port disappears.
Note: A main to backup or backup to main transition can be triggered when a
GbE link
alarm or
GbE Link with UDP
alarm occurs on the active port.
The following backup parameters can be changed
Enable Main to Backup + Delay: enables or disables the main to backup
transition if a failure arises on the main input. The time (expressed in seconds) the
alarm remains active before the backup port becomes active can be entered in the
Delay box.
Enable Backup to Main + Delay: enables or disables the backup to main
transition if the failure on the main input disappears. The time (expressed in
seconds) the alarm remains active before the mains port becomes active can be
entered in the Delay box.
Detection: determines the detection mode for main to backup switching.
-
On GbE Link Only
: the main to backup switching becomes active when the link
fails on the active port but is still present on the inactive port.
-
On GbE Link With UDP
: the main to backup switching becomes active when the
link with UDP data fails on the active port.
