Ethernet Port Redundancy View
Changing the Redundancy Mode to hwActive or hwStandby, creates a
hardware-redundant pair. Changing this field to swActive or swStandby,
creates a software-redundant pair.
Faults
Displays the number of local or remote faults on this port. This counter
increments when there is a transition between a fault and no-fault state.
Remote Fault Slect Mode
The set of local modes that contain fault events that will cause a switchover.
Table 2-12 lists the modes and their descriptions.
Transmit Mode
Displays which type of explorer packet will be transmitted by the standby port
to the active port to determine if the active port is still alive. Possible values
for this are given in Table 2-13.
swActive If the previous value was swStandby, the port becomes the
active port in the software-redundant pair, resulting in a
switchover.
swStandy If the previous value was swActive, the port becomes the
standby port in the hardware-redundant pair, resulting in a
switchover.
