When you click on the Edit Port button for an IP Input configured with primary/backup
reception addresses, the Redundancy Control part of the configuration screen will include one
additional control, to permit manual redundancy flips:
The new fields are:
• Redundancy Status: this field indicates which address (primary or backup) is currently
being used for reception.
• Manual Redundancy: if the Flip button is clicked, the port will flip the redundancy (i.e.,
it will switch to the other configured address).
When the Advanced view is selected, additional fields appear in the table, as depicted below:
The Advanced view includes all items in the Basic view plus the following:
• Backup Mode: The configured value of this parameter.
• IP Packet Rate (pkts/s): The measured IP input packet rate, in packets/second. This
field is useful for debugging: if you have a non-zero IP Packet Rate, but a zero TS Bit
Rate, this indicates that the packets being received by the 9990-TRX-MPEG do not
contain a valid transport stream. This allows differentiation between a transport network
problem (no packets being received) and a data format problem (packets contain invalid
data).
• Source Address:
