Repeater Redundancy
4-4 Setting Network Circuit Redundancy
a. In the Name box, enter a new circuit name (up to 16 alphanumeric
characters).
b. In the Retries box, enter the number of retries — that is, the number of
times the SEHI100TX tests the connection to the first IP address listed in
the Circuit Addresses list box before it gives up and moves on to the next
address. The valid range of retries you can enter into this field is 0-16.
c. Be sure to click on before exiting the window to save your
changes.
3. With the appropriate Circuit Name highlighted, click to access the
Add Circuit Address window, Figure 4-4.
Figure 4-4. The Add Circuit Address Window
You can use this window to define IP addresses of up to 8 devices on the
network. These addresses identify the destination nodes that the SEHI100TX
looks for to determine the status of the active link. If the device determines
that it has lost the link with the first address in the Circuit Addresses list, it
checks the link status with the next address. If it can’t establish a link with any
address in the list, the device switches traffic to a backup port.
a. To add a circuit address, enter a valid network IP address and then click
. Repeat as necessary to add additional addresses. Click
to exit the window.
b. To delete a circuit address, highlight the address in the Circuit Addresses
list in the Channel X Redundancy window, and click .
4. Use the bottom half of the Channel X Redundancy window to define the
primary/active and backup ports for a Circuit:
a. In the Circuit list, highlight the Circuit Name of interest, and click
to ensure that the Status of the circuit is set to
Disabled before configuring the port list.
NOTE
The SEHI100TX will poll the circuit addresses in the order they were entered.
