Apply this sequence of commands to the following virtual routers, assigning each a priority of
101:
— VR 2—Priority 101
— VR 3—Priority 101
— VR 4—Priority 101
4. Configure priority tracking parameters for each virtual router. For this example, the best
parameter to track is Layer 4 ports (l4pts):
This command sets the priority tracking parameter for Virtual Router 1, electing the virtual
router with the most available ports as the master router. Repeat this command for the following
virtual routers:
— VR 2 - Track l4ptsVR 6 - Track l4pts
— VR 3 - Track l4ptsVR 7 - Track l4pts
— VR 4 - Track l4ptsVR 8 - Track l4pts
Configuration for Alteon device 1 is complete.
To configure the second Alteon device
Use this procedure to configure Alteon device 2:
1. Dump the configuration script (text dump) of Alteon 1 using either of the following tools:
— BBI
a. You need a serial cable that is a DB-9 male to DB-9 female, straight-through (not a null
modem) cable.
b. Connect the cable from a COM port on your computer to the console port on Alteon 1.
c. Open HyperTerminal (or the terminal program of your choice) and connect to the device
using the following parameters: Baud: 115200, Data Bits: 8, Parity: None, Stop Bits:1,
Flow Control: None.
— HyperTerminal
a. Only the Baud Rate and Flow Control options need to be changed from the default
settings.
b. Once you connect to the device, start logging your session in HyperTerminal (transfer/
capture text).
c. Save the file as “Customer Name” Alteon 1, then type the following command in the CLI:
/cfg/dump to dump a script.
d. Stop logging your session (transfer/capture text/stop).
2. Modify the script by opening the text file that was created and change the following:
a. Delete anything above Script Start.
b. Delete the two lines directly below Script Start. These two lines identify the device from
which the dump was taken and the date and time. If these two lines are left in, it will
confuse Alteon 2 when you dump in the file.
c. Change the last octet in all the IP interfaces from .10 to .11. Find this line in the file:
/cfg/l3/if 1/addr 10.10.10.10
d. Delete the 0 and replace it with a 1. Be sure to do this for all the IP interfaces or duplicate IP
addresses will be present in the network.
