Verify the Protection Switch Profile Settings
From the DNX Main Menu, select System Configuration, then Nest Profile. The resulting
screen should look similar to the one shown in Figure 35.
Carefully read each field on this menu, and set up your system based on your equipment and
software. If you have redundancy, select Yes on the N+1 Redundancy Node field. If you want
to enable a second broadband group, select Yes at the Protection Switch Dual Broadband
Groups field. A new field, N+1 Redundancy Broadband Group 2, will appear. Establish which
type of broadband devices you want to include for Broadband Group 1 and Broadband Group 2.
Note: If you have a Rev 0 Controller Module and PSX 2.3 (or greater) software, you will need
to specify PSX-5300 chassis at the N+1 Chassis Type field in order for your system to
support the second broadband bus. Save your configuration and return to the Nest
Summary Menu. At the Protection Switch field, press
E to expose the Protection
Switch slot information. The Chassis field will show ‘Determined’ as long as you
selected 5300.
