CHAPTER 13 Network
The following procedure describes how to configure Ethernet Groups through the Web interface.
You can also configure it through ini file [EtherGroupTable] or CLI (configure network >
ether-group).
➢
To configure Ethernet Groups:
1. Open the Ethernet Groups table (Setup menu > IP Network tab > Core Entities folder >
Ethernet Groups).
2. Select the Ethernet Group that you want to configure, and then click Edit; the following dialog
box appears:
3. Configure the Ethernet Group according to the parameters described in the table below.
4. Click Apply, and then reset the device with a burn-to-flash for your settings to take effect.

Defines the mode of operation of the ports in the Ethernet Group. This
applies only to Ethernet Groups containing two ports.
■ [2] 1RX/1TX = (Default) At any given time, only one of the ports in
the Ethernet Group transmits and receives packets. If a link exists
on both ports, the active one is either the first to have a link up or the
lower-numbered port if both have the same link up from start.
■ [3] 2RX/1TX = Both ports in the Ethernet Group can receive
packets, but only one port can transmit. The transmitting port is
determined arbitrarily by the device. If the selected port fails at a
later stage, a switchover to the redundant port is done, which begins
to transmit and receive.
■ [4] 2RX/2TX = Both ports in the Ethernet Group can receive and
transmit packets. This option is applicable only to the Maintenance
interface for High Availability (HA) deployments. For more
information, see Network Topology Types and Rx/Tx Ethernet Port
Group Settings.
