Mediant 2600 E-SBC
If the Maintenance ports of both devices are connected directly to each other without
intermediation of switches, configure the mode to 2RX/1TX:
Figure 25-2: Rx/Tx Mode for Direct Connection
If the two devices are connected through two (or more) isolated LAN switches (i.e.,
packets from one switch cannot traverse the second switch), configure the mode to
2RX/2TX:
Figure 25-3: Redundancy Mode for Two Isolated Switches
Notes:
• When two LAN switches are used, the LAN switches must be in the same subnet
(i.e., broadcast domain).
• To configure Rx/Tx modes of the Ethernet ports, see ''Network Topology Types
and Rx/Tx Ethernet Port Group Settings'' on page 407.
25.1.2 Configuring the HA Devices
This section describes how to initially configure the two devices comprising the HA system.
This configuration is done in the following chronological order:
1. Configuring the first device for HA - see ''Step 1: Configure the First Device'' on page
409
2. Configuring the second device for HA - see ''Step 2: Configure the Second Device'' on
page 411
3. Activating HA on the devices - see ''Step 3: Initialize HA on the Devices'' on page 412
