Figure 4-4. Redundant IOC Cards with Redundant Ethernet Ports
Redundant Ethernet Ports
The TP5000 allows auto switchover or manual switchover between redundant ports.
The IOC card sends a gratuitous ARP after switchover between ports.
The redundant port uses the ETH1 port configuration. Therefore, the redundant
ports share the same IP address and MAC address.
For all commands that indicate a specific port on an IOC card, the port will be
referred to as IOC-[y] or IOC1-[y] in the command description, where y=1 or 2. If
port redundancy is enabled, then y=1 for all commands.
Use the following procedure to configure ports on IOC1 as a redundant pair.
1. Login at the admin or Config-user level.
2. Type
set redundancy port ioc1 enable and press Enter.
3. Type
set ip ioc1-1 address 192.168.2.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.2.1
and press Enter.
4. Type
set ip ioc1-1 restart and press Enter.
