Configuring Interface Redundancy
This chapter describes how to configure interface redundancy. It assumes you
have read Configuring Routers and Chapter 1 and Chapter 3 of this guide, and that
you have
1. Opened a configuration file in local or remote mode
2. Specified router hardware if this is a local mode configuration file
3. Selected the link- or net-module connector on which you are enabling
interface redundancy
To enable interface redundancy, you must select at least two interfaces as
members of an interface redundancy group. One of the interfaces is the designated
primary interface; under normal circumstances it is the active interface that
provides normal routing/bridging services. The other is the redundant interface; it
takes over if the active interface fails.
Enabling Interface Redundancy
To configure an interface redundancy group:
1. In the Configuration Manager window, select an available LAN interface.
The Add Circuit window appears (Figure
4-1).
