Interfaces
(Optional) Repeat to add additional test targets.
7. Optional active recovery configuration parameters:
a. Move back two levels in the configuration by typing .. ..:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target 0)> .. ..
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink>
b. To configure the device to restart the interface when its connection is considered to have
failed:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink)> restart enable
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink>
This is useful for interfaces that may regain connectivity after restarting, such as a cellular
modem.
c. To configure the device to reboot when the interface is considered to have failed:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink)> reboot enable
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink>
Note
If both the restart and reboot parameters are enabled, the reboot parameter takes
precedence.
d. Set the Interval between connectivity tests:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink)> interval value
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink>
IX20 User Guide
ii. Set the interface. For example:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target
0)> other_interface /network/interface/eth1
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target
0)>
Set the alternate interface's IP version. This allows you to determine the
o
alternate interface's status for a particular IP version.
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target 0)>
other_ip_version value
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target 0)>
where value is one of: any, both, ipv4, or ipv6.
o
Set the expected status of the alternate interface:
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target 0)>
other_status value
(config network interface my_wan ipv4 surelink target 0)>
where value is either up or down. For example, if other_status is set to down,
but the alternate interface is determined to be up, then this test will fail.
