Verifying Port Redundancy Auto-Recovery

Verify port information by entering the following command
show port info slot#/port#
slot# is the chassis slot number of the MIO/UMIO card on which the physical port resides.
port# is the physical port on the MIO/UMIO.
The following shows a sample output of this command for port 1 on the MIO/UMIO in slot 5:

Configuring Data Processing Card Availability

As discussed in the Understanding the System Boot Process section of Understanding System Operation and
Configuration, when the system initially boots up, all installed DPC/UDPCsor DPC2/UDPC2s are placed
into standby mode. You must activate some of these cards in order to configure and use them for session
processing. One DPC/UDPC or DPC2/UDPC2 may remain in standby mode for redundancy.
This section describes how to activate DPC/UDPCs or DPC2/UDPC2s and specify their redundancy.
Important
Enter the following command to check the operational status of all DPC types:
show card table
This command lists the DPC types installed in the system by their slot number, their operational status, and
whether or not the card is a single point of failure (SPOF).
Use the following example to configure DPC/UDPC or DPC2/UDPC2 availability:
configure
