private subnet for communication with other ARXes in the same RON and/or the
switch’s redundant peer. All private subnets in the RON and/or pair are carried by the
same VLAN. This private VLAN, and the separate metalog VLAN, must be reserved
for ARX traffic only.
The private-subnet and VLAN information appears at the top of a the failed switch’s
show running-config output. For example, this is the top of a running-config file from
a failed switch. The private-subnet information is highlighted in bold text:

Entering the Private Subnet
Enter the private subnet and VLAN of the failed switch, as well as the VLAN for the
private metalog subnet. The VLANs must be unique in your network, shared only
amongst the ARXes in the RON. The defaults (1002 and 1003) may be sufficient for
your installation. For example:
...
The switch's internal subnet requires an IP address and mask.
7. Enter the switch's private IP address
in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn.(default=169.254.6.0) # 169.254.94.0
8. Enter the switch's private subnet mask
in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn.(default=255.255.255.0) # <Enter>
The private subnet VLAN is used externally for redundancy traffic.
Be sure this value does not conflict with existing VLAN IDs.
9. Enter the chassis's private subnet VLAN
