6-22
Forwarding—Forwards traffic on the specified link to the SCE platform for processing.
Bypass—Stops all forwarding of traffic on the specified link to the SCE platform. Traffic still flows
on the link, but is not processed in any way by the SCE platform.
This does not affect the redundancy states.
Cutoff—Completely cuts off flow of traffic through the specified link.
Link mode is relevant only to inline topologies.
It is recommended that in cascaded topologies, both SCE platforms be configured for the same link
mode, otherwise the service is unpredictable.
The default link mode is forwarding. When other link modes are selected, active service control is
not available and any service control configuration is not applicable.
