Creating a Redundant Pair
To prevent loss of service due to equipment failure, two S-2500B Gateways can be linked as a
redundant pair using the LightSand Gateway Redundancy Protocol (LGRP). For a complete
discussion of LGRP redundant pairs, please refer to
currently under development.)
Configuring the Node Characteristics
The following "?" command displays the list of node-specific items that can be configured.
gateway:> config system ?
Sub-Context:
Cur-Context:
Example: Set the gateway's name and activate the change:
gateway:> config system name <NewGatewayName>
gateway/config/system# activate
To change the type of a port after it has been configured, first deactivate the system with
restart-mode "warm-inactive", change the type, and then reactivate.
Example: Deactivate the system, change a port type, and reactivate:
gateway:> config system restart-mode warm-inact
gateway/config# port efc 1 type fc
gateway/config# system activate
Changes are in effect until the gateway is given a restart-mode of "cold," which restores the
factory-set default configuration.
