Non-Standard Tier Configuration
Guidelines for Existing Firmware Versions
•
Non-Standard tier configurations are those configurations supported by Paragon II, but
require special procedures in order to function properly. These include:
−
Triangle Configuration
−
Diamond Configuration
−
Redundant Configuration
•
Recovery:
−
After any re-connection subsequent to the Non-Standard tier configuration, all UMT
Matrix Switches should undergo a FUNC reset to clear the switch database. This
procedure should be performed starting from the third tier device down to the base unit.
−
Whenever a third tier UMT Matrix Switch is replaced, all of the second tier and base
UMT Matrix Switches should undergo a FUNC reset.
−
Whenever a second tier UMT Matrix Switch is replaced, all of the base UMT Matrix
Switches should undergo a FUNC reset.
−
Whenever a base UMT Matrix Switch is replaced, only the new UMT Matrix Switch
should undergo a FUNC reset.
Diamond Configuration
A user configured on the second tier and connected to UMT-2A has access only to UMT-3A,
while a user connected to UMT-2B can access both UMT-3A and UMT-3B. The base
administrator has access to all UMTs in the diamond configuration.
Triangle Configuration
The following procedure must be followed to ensure this configuration functions properly:
−
After re-connection, all UMT Matrix Switches must undergo a FUNC reset to clear the
switch database. This procedure should be performed starting from the third tier device
down to the base unit.
−
Execute the FUNC reset in the following order: UMT-3A → UMT-2A → UMT-Base 1.
