2.2.1 Entering the View of a Main Interface

On a device operating based on the V 2.41 platform, all physical interfaces or
subinterfaces can be main interfaces. Before you can back up an interface, you must
enter its view first.
Perform the following configuration in system view.

2.2.2 Assigning Backup Interfaces with Priorities to the Main Interface

Backup interfaces to the main interface can be physical interfaces or logical
channels/interfaces such as those created using the dialer route logical-channel
logic-channel-number command, dialer or virtual template interfaces.
Perform the following configuration in the view of the main interface.
Table 2-2 Assign a backup interface with a priority to the main interface
Assign a backup interface with a priority
to the main interface.
Delete a backup interface of the main
interface.
The priority argument defaults to 0.
You can assign up to three backup interfaces to a main interface. The maximum
number of main interfaces that the backup center can accommodate is 10. If two
backup interfaces with the same priority are available, the one configured first would be
selected in case the main interface goes down.
To use a logical channel created using the dialer route logical-channel command on
a dial-up interface for backup, you must first create a logical channel interface, and then
associate the logical channel interface with the logical channel by using the dialer
route logical-channel command on the dial-up interface.
Perform the following configuration in the system view.
