The lanconfig.ascii configuration file contains the following fields:
FAILOVER_GROUP The name for a single LAN Monitor failover group. You must
specify a name for each LAN Monitor failover group on the
system. If the group consists of multiple ports (multiple PPAs), the
name format is lan9XX, where XX is a decimal number starting
with 00 (for example, lan900).
Each FAILOVER_GROUP can have the following keywords:
STATIONARY_IP The IPv4 or IPv6 address dedicated to
the failover group. This is an optional
field. When present in a failover group
declaration, the primary port of the
failover group is configured with an IPv4
address, IPv6 address, or both. Then,
when the failover group is created, the
addresses are switched to the failover
group.
When the STATIONARY_IP field is not
present, the primary port has no IP
address defined. The failover group is
created with no IP address on it. You can
configure IP addresses on the failover
group using other means (for example,
ifconfig).
STATIONARY_MAC The MAC address dedicated to the
FAILOVER_GROUP. This is an optional
field. By default, the physical ports in the
failover group do not share a common
MAC address.
PRIMARY Specifies the active port for the
FAILOVER_GROUP.
Each failover group must have one port.
This port is typically assigned the highest
priority or lowest cost value so it will be
the port that initially carries traffic. The
port can also have IP addresses
configured. After lanapplyconf
creates the failover group, the IP
addresses on the active port (if present)
are moved to the failover group.
