Version 7.2 1093 Mediant 800B Gateway & E-SBC
User's Manual 72. Configuration Parameters Reference
Parameter Description
configure network > high-
availability > revertive-
mode
[HARevertiveEnabled]
[0] Disable = (Default) A switchover over to the redundant device is
done only if a failure occurs in the currently active device.
[1] Enable = A switchover over to the redundant device is done if a
failure occurs in the currently active device. However, a switchover to
the device with the highest priority (configured by the HAPriority
parameter) occurs whenever the device recovers from a failure.
Therefore, whenever possible, the highest priority device is the active
one.
For more information on the HA switchover mechanism, see Device
Switchover upon Failure on page 804.
Note: For the parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
Preempt Priority
configure network > high-
availability > priority
[HAPriority]
Defines the priority of the active device used in the HA Preempt
mechanism.
The valid value is 1 (lowest priority) to 10 (highest priority). The default is
5.
Note:
For the parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
The parameter is applicable only if you configure the 'Preempt Mode'
parameter to Enable.
You must configure each device in the HA system with different
parameter values (priorities).
Redundant Preempt
Priority
configure network > high-
availability > redundant-
priority
Defines the priority of the redundant device used in the HA Preempt
mechanism.
The valid value is 1 (lowest priority) to 10 (highest priority). The default is
5.
Note:
For the parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
The parameter is applicable only if you configure the 'Preempt Mode'
parameter to Enable.
You must configure each device in the HA system with different
parameter values (priorities).
HA Network Reachability Parameters
HA Network Reachability
configure network > high-
availability > net-mon-
enable
[HAPingEnabled]
Enables the pinging of an active IP network destination in HA mode to
test reachability from one of the device's IP network interfaces. If no
reply is received from a ping and the previous ping was successful, a
switchover occurs to the redundant device.
[0] Disable (default)
[1] Enable
Destination Address
configure network > high-
availability > net-mon-
destination
[HAPingDestination]
Defines the IP address of the destination that the device pings.
The default is 0.0.0.0.
