Radio Configuration
Before connecting the hot standby together, Radio A and B should first be configured for use in a hot standby arrangement.
To configure a QB to operate within a hot standby arrangement, go to: Setup -> Basestation -> General and enable the HSC Mode.
Part F – Quick Reference Guide
Once HSC Mode is enabled, a range of hot standby configuration parameters will become available.
Unique IP Address
Each QB radio within a hot standby arrangement should have it’s own unique IP address. IP addresses should be configured
before any cable connections are made between the QB radios or QHHSC, to avoid any IP conflicts.
To configure the IP address, go to: Setup -> Network -> Ethernet -> IP Address
Shared IP Address
The two QB radios within a hot standby arrangement can be configure to ‘share’ an IP address. This is a separate IP address
from the radio’s unique IP address. The shared IP address can be used to access the current ‘online’ radio.
The shared IP address should be configured in each individual QB as the same IP address.
To configure the shared IP address, enable HSC mode, then go to: Setup -> Basestation -> General and enable Shared IP Mode.
