Configuring Interface and Router Redundancy
3-4
308626-14.00 Rev 00
Table 3-1 demonstrates what happens when you configure interface redundancy
across slots using router and interface redundancy together.
Note that you can prevent the second role change by configuring the Automatic
Role Switching parameter to Switch on Failure or One Shot Auto (refer to
Chapter 5).
Using the Clear Function
The Clear option from the Router Redundancy pulldown menu allows you to clear
all protocols from all circuits that have router redundancy configured. The Clear
option does not clear any protocols from circuits that are not configured for router
redundancy. This option is useful when you convert a primary router redundancy
configuration to a secondary configuration, because a typical secondary
configuration does not include any of the protocols that the primary has.
To access the Clear option, choose Protocols > Router Redundancy > Clear in the
Configuration Manager main window.
Table 3-1. Using Interface Redundancy across Slots with Router Redundancy
Router A Router B
Router A is in the primary role for router
redundancy. It also has the active interface in the
interface redundancy group.
Router B is in the secondary role.
The CPU board for the active interface fails.
Router A detects that it is no longer the best
primary router, so Router A changes its role to
secondary.
Router B is the new best primary router, and it
assumes the primary role.
Meanwhile, a redundant interface from the
interface redundancy group has become active,
with the result that Router A is again the best
primary router in the router redundancy group.
Router B recognizes that it is no longer the best
primary router and changes out of the primary
role.
Router A assumes the primary role. Router B is in the secondary role.
Data is moving again.
