Parameter Function Values
Administrative
Status
Used to enable/disable the selected
port
UP — The flow of traffic through the selected port is
enabled.
DOWN — The flow of traffic through the selected
port is disabled. This state should be selected as long
as the port configuration has not yet been
completed, or when it is necessary to stop traffic
flow through the port.
Default: DOWN
User Name Used to assign a logical name to the
selected port
Up to 32 alphanumerical characters.
Default: Empty string
Redundancy Controls the use of port redundancy.
After redundancy is enabled,
additional fields appear, for
configuring redundancy parameters,
and the redundancy partner slot and
channel (port).
Note that the redundancy status of
the selected port (primary) appears in
an additional read-only field. The first
configured port of a redundancy pair
always becomes the primary port:
configuration parameters prepared for
the primary port are then
automatically copied to the other port
as soon as the other port is specified,
therefore, make sure to plan ahead
the order in which ports are
configured and always start
configuring the primary port
NONE – Redundancy disabled for the port being
configured.
DUAL CABLE P. TX – Redundancy function is enabled.
Each of the two ports in the redundancy pair is
connected through a separate transmission path to
the far end equipment, and when a fault occurs, the
traffic is switched to the other port.
The active port transmits the payload, whereas the
data transmitted by the other (inactive, or standby)
port depends on its type:
• When the other port is an E1 or T1 port, it
transmits in parallel the same payload.
• When the other port is an internal DS1 port, the
corresponding pseudowires transmit only OAM
packets.
Default: NONE
Primary
Displays the port function in a
redundancy pair.
This parameter is not displayed when
Redundancy is NONE
YES – This port serves as the primary port of a
redundancy pair.
NO – This port serves as the alternative port of a
redundancy pair.
Default: YES
Redundant
Slot
Selects the slot in which the other
module of a redundancy pair is
installed.
The selection must always be
symmetrical.
This parameter is not displayed when
Redundancy is NONE
The available selections are the CL modules installed
in the chassis, and I/O 1 to I/O 10.
Default: CL
