Procedure 6-4 To configure 9500 MPR card protection
The 9500 MPR supports card protection for all card types. EPS card protection for the
CORE-ENH card in slot 1 is automatically configured by the system when an optional
spare CORE-ENH card is provisioned into slot 2. Radio modem and 32 x DS1/E1 cards in
slots 3, 5, and 7 can be protected by corresponding identical cards in slots 4, 6, and 8.
Protection for cards in slots 3, 5, and 7 must be configured. The protected card is
referred to as the main card and the protecting card is referred to as the spare card.
Use the following procedure to configure optional card protection for radio modem and
32 x DS1/E1 cards.
1 Choose Equipment from the navigation tree view selector. The navigation tree
displays the Equipment view.

opens with the General tab displayed.
5 Click on the Protection tab.

7 Click on the OK button. A dialog box appears.

and the status of the spare card should be Standby.
Note 1 — All cross connections, flow-IDs, and synchronization sources
must be removed from the port under the spare card slot before
protection can be enabled.
