Configuring Redundancy between the Local and Remote Devices
When the redundant link is installed and the redundancy mode is set to
AUTOMATIC, Optimux-34 starts using the main link. It automatically switches to
the backup link when the selected main link fails (signal loss/sync loss). The LINK
A/B SYNC LOSS LED on the front panel indicates the deactivated link.
Optimux-34 switches back to the main link, when the signal is recovered.
When the redundant link is installed and the redundancy mode is MANUAL,
Optimux-34 starts using the main link. It automatically switches to the backup link
when the main link fails (signal loss/sync loss). The LINK A/B SYNC LOSS LED on
the front panel indicates the deactivated link. The backup link remains active even
when the main link recovers. Switching back to the main link is performed by
setting the redundancy mode to AUTOMATIC from the terminal or by turning the
system OFF and then ON.
When the management link-redundancy is OFF, the redundancy function is not
available.
³ To configure the uplink redundancy mode for the local and remote devices:
• From the System menu, choose Redundancy.
