The Port Resilience screen allows you to create and delete a resilient
link pair (main link and standby link), and to change the configuration
of an existing resilient link pair.
There are three steps to setting up a resilient pair.
1 Disconnect the unit which is to provide the standby ports from the
network. (We make this recommendation, even though it is possible to
set up links whilst still connected, to avoid loops being formed
accidently.)
2 Set up the pair from the Repeater Management screen. Select
management level Port. Specify the unit and port of the main link.
Actuate the RESILIENCE button to display the Port Resilience screen.
Now you can specify the standby unit and port. See the field
descriptions below.
If the port you intended to use as standby is not shown in the list box,
the unit which contains the port is not set for Disable on Boot. Change
the switch position and reset the unit.
3 Reconnect the unit with the standby ports on it to the network.
To delete or change the configuration of a resilient link pair, do one of
the following:
From the Repeater Resilience screen, select the resilient link pair you
want to configure, then actuate the OK button. The Port Resilience
screen will be displayed.
From the Repeater Management screen, select management level Port,
then specify either the main port's or the standby port's unit and port
ID. Actuate the RESILIENCE button to display the Port Resilience screen.
The Port Resilience screen is illustrated below.
