Pri Scr
A priority value is used to distinguish between ESS servers with the same preference settings,
ESS servers with no preference setting, or ESS servers that are not in the same community as
the IPSI. The Priority Score can be set from one to 100 points. The default value is 1. The value
of the priority score and the selected preference, combine to determine the position of the ESS
server on the IPSI's Priority Score List. The IPSI will failover to the ESS server at the top of the
list with the highest priority score.

Com
A community is a virtual group consisting of an ESS server and one or more Port Networks.
Assigning an ESS server to a community associates the ESS server with the IPSI(s) in the Port
Network(s) for that community. The Port Networks are assigned to Communities on page 6 of
the System Parameters ESS screen. The association effects how the ESS server is prioritized
for the IPSI in that community, if the ESS server is administered with a Local Preferred or
Local Only preference.
Note:
It is possible to administer an ESS server as having no preferences and just a
Note:
priority score. If all ESS servers where administered in this fashion, the IPSI
would prioritize each ESS server based on its priority score only.
