For example, UTP allows two repeaters to be connected together in a resilient configuration. In such a pair, one port is the main port, the other the standby port. One of these ports is enabled and is the current active port; the other is present in case the active port fails. The device detects a failure and switches ports. Device Management Page 34 3Com LinkSwitch 1100/3300

35 Application View For a resilient pair definition to be valid both ports must be on the same repeater. Also, the standby port must be configured to be disabled on boot to prevent loops in the network upon recovery from a power failure. The MRM Resilience application supports the MRM Resilience view, described below. MRM Resilience View Access: In the Icon Subviews menu for the 3CommrmResApp Application icon, select Mrm Resilience. This view provides the Mrm Resilience table, which allows creation and deletion of resilient pairs and provides status control information. The entries are indexed on the repeater number and slot/port location of the main port. Double-clicking an entry accesses the Mrm Resilience Table Entry view in which you can update the configuration of a resilient pair. The table column headings are described below. Repeater A resilient pair must be attached to a repeater in the chassis; this field displays the index value of the repeater for the pair. Main Slot The main port slot number for the pair. Supported Applications Main Port The port number for the resilient pair s main port. Main State The state of the main port. Failure information changes the port state from active to standby or vice-versa. Table 11 (Page 36) shows port states. SBY Slot The slot number of the standby port in the resilient pair. SBY Port The port number of the standby port in the pair. SBY State The state of the main port (see Table 11 (Page 36)). Pair State The state of the resilient pair. When this field is Operational, all parameters in the entry are valid and the pair operate as a resilient pair. When this field is Invalid, information is missing, or the resilient pair rules are no longer valid because of a change in the device configuration (such as removing a card). Mod State The Modification State of the resilient pair. Set the Under Mod field to a value of Under-Mod before changing the configuration of a pair. Device Management Page 35 3Com LinkSwitch 1100/3300

36 Application View The changes are not applied until the Mrm Resilience view s Mod State shows the value of Stable. Pair Action This is used to change the state of the resilient pair. Setting a value of Create configures the pair using the definitions in the entry. Setting Delete removes the entry from the table and terminates operation of resilience on the port pair. The TogglePort setting swaps the currently active port with the standby port only if the standby port status is OK. Pair Enable Enable or disable both ports of the resilient pair. Table 11: Port State Failed MRM Resilience Port States Indicates Loss of signal to the port; this port cannot be active. Supported Applications of any of the resilient links or ports, but empties the table so that no resilient links are configured. Add Entry Opens the Add Resilience Table Entry view, described below. Add Resilience Table Entry View You can add a resilient pair entry to the Mrm Resilience table with the fields in this view. Instance Enter the instance OID for the new resilient pair.
