Click the Replication Nodes tab on the Mobility MatriX page to review the list of

configured nodes.
If any Replication Node BSCs are missing, add them by following the above steps.

Step 3: Set Up Replication on the Nodes

Note: For each Replication Node, make sure that you have connected the network ports,
set up the protected interface, set up the managed interface, and set up any VLANs (if
desired) for each Replication Node, as described in the appropriate sections of Chapter
4.
Note: You can also set up a secondary BSC in a failover configuration with any of the
Replication Nodes. No additional configuration is required on the Replication Nodes
beyond what is described in this chapter.
To configure replication on each Node BSC:
Click the Mobility MatriX tab in the BSC administrator console, and then click the
1.
Replication Setup tab to display the Replication Setup page.
Set the BSC role to Replication Node by marking the Act as a replication node and
receive edits from a central master? checkbox. The Replication Setup page expands
to reveal the Replicated Data section, as shown in Figure 14-13.
By default, only the settings on the first four tabs of the UI (User Authentication, User
Roles, Voice, and General) are replicated. Optionally, mark the "Web Logins" and/
or the Wireless checkboxes to replicate the data on those tabs also.
Enter the protected interface IP address of the Replication Master in the Master IP
2.
address field.
This is the BSC from which the BSC Node will receive configuration updates.
Enter a text string in the Replication mesh key field.
3.
The mesh key is a common, shared password that you provide for all BSCs
participating in the replication setup.
The BSCs exchange the key when communicating with each other, thus providing an
extra layer of security. The key can be any text string you choose, as long as it is the
same for all BSCs in the replication setup.
Re-enter the Replication mesh key in the Confirm field.

Optional. If you are configuring the replication feature to support a Load Sharing
Group, you must take the additional step of adding the Replication Master as a
Replication Node by following steps a to c. This is only required if you are using
the BSC Load Sharing Feature.
