Conguring the Bypass Switch
The 10/100/1000 Bypass Switch allows you to set several conguration
options and to display conguration information. You can set:
The frequency of the heartbeat.
This denes the period of time that passes before the switch
considers the packet to have timed out. The default is 1 second.
The number of timeouts allowed.
This is the number of packets missed before the switch bypasses
the IPS (retry count). The default is 3 missed packets.
Port communication parameters.
You can set the ports for xed speed or auto-negotiation and full- or
half-duplex communications. You also turn Link Fault Detect and
Bypass Detect on or off. The default is LFD and Bypass Detect on.
A custom heartbeat packet.
You can input a custom heartbeat packet to suit special needs. The
default is the IPX packet shown on page 5.
Reset to factory defaults.
Use this option to quickly restore the original conguration.
For quick reference, you can display the conguration settings and heartbeat
packet.
