Logical Module Representation
The Backplane Module
Displays the redundant-capability of the port. Table 2-2 lists the possible
values and their descriptions:
A value of “hwRedOnly” and “hwAndswRed” indicates that the port is capable
of being configured into a hardware-redundant pair. A value of “swRedOnly”
or “hwAndswRed” indicates that the port is capable of being configured into a
software-redundant pair.
Redundancy Mode
Displays the redundancy mode of the port. Table 2-3 lists possible values and
their descriptions:
Table 2-4 lists and describes values that can be written to the device to change
redundancy mode:
Table 2-2. Redundant-capability Values
Value Description
hwRedOnly hardware redundancy only
swRedOnly software redundancy only
hwAndswRed both hardware and software redundancy
Table 2-3. Redundancy Mode Values
Value Description
standalone The port is not in any redundant pair.
hwActive The port is the active companion in a hardware-redundant
pair.
hwStandby The port is the standby companion in a hardware-
redundant pair.
swActive The port is the active companion in a software-redundant
pair.
swStandy The port is the standby companion in a software-redundant
pair.
Table 2-4. Values That Change Redundancy Mode
Value Description
standalone Causes the redundant pair to be broken up.
hwActive If the previous value was “hwStandby”, this value causes
the port to become the active port in the hardware-
redundant pair, resulting in a switchover.
