3. In the first step of the Create network wizard, select Single network
and confirm your entry by clicking Next. The second step of the Create
network wizard opens.
4. Enter the required name for the uplink set in Name of uplink set. The
network automatically has the same name.
5. Under Ports for the uplink set, select the uplink ports that should
belong to this uplink set. An uplink port can be included in the port group
as an active port or as a backup port. An uplink set must contain at least
one active port.
All active uplink ports and all backup ports each form a LAG.
If a network needs to be configured so that the IBP module switches to
another port if any problems arise, then besides configuring the active
ports, you also have to configure one or several ports as backup ports. If
there is no longer a connection for any of the active ports of an uplink set,
the backup ports are activated and the ports that were active until this
point are deactivated.
Assign the required ports of the IBP to the uplink set by opening the con-
text menu of each relevant port.
For a LAG configuration, you have to configure at least two
active ports.
With PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1Gb 36/8+2 connection blades,
1GB uplinks and 10 Gb uplinks must not be mixed. If you try
this, the Finish button will not be enabled.
6. Select additional options, such as
Activate Port Backup: Switch to a backup port if an error occurs in the
active port
Linkdown propagation: Send a linkdown event if both the active ports
and the backup ports fail. The linkdown event triggers a failover process
on the server blade if configured accordingly.
