Circuit and Network Redundancy
The MX2800 STS-1 provides backup measures of protection for
both circuit and network failure. The following sections describe
the three possible modes of operation:
• Non-Redundant Mode, which offers no backup protection, is
described on page 7-2.
• Circuit Failure Recovery Mode, which offers backup protection
in the event of controller card failure, is described on page 7-3.
• Circuit and Network Failure Recovery Mode, which offers a
complete backup system for both card and network failure, is
described on page 7-4.
The descriptions given include illustrations and suggested
configuration settings. Please note that the settings may need
modification based on your network configuration.
