Set the Shared Virtual Address field to the virtual IP address shared by the two
●
TN2602AP circuit packs.
Set the Virtual MAC Table field to a number from 1 to 4. Normally, you can enter 1.
●
However, you might choose a different table number if all of the following conditions exist:
- A port network under the control of a different Communication Manager main server
has duplicated TN2602AP circuit packs.
- That port network controlled by a different main server has the same number as the
port network in which you are administering the TN2602AP circuit packs.
- The port network or its main server connects to the same Ethernet switch as the port
network in which you are administering the TN2602AP circuit packs.
Selecting a different Virtual MAC Table from that chosen for a port network that has the
previously-listed conditions helps prevent the possibility that two TN2602AP circuit packs
within the customer's network will have the same virtual MAC address.
The Virtual MAC Address field is populated automatically with a MAC address from the
●
Virtual MAC Table you select.
