Command Syntax and Usage | |
---|---|
trigger | |
Displays the Failover trigger menu. To view this menu, see /cfg/l3/ha/switch/trigger Failover Trigger Menu. | |
failback [onfailure|always] | |
Defines the Alteon failback mode. Values: ![]() ![]() Default: onfailure | |
pref [active|standby] | |
Defines the Alteon preferred initial state. The preferred initial state is relevant and configurable only when the failback mode is always. The preferred initial state should be active for one of the Alteons in an HA pair, and standby for the other. If both Alteon platforms have the same preferred initial state, the system arbitrarily selects the active Alteon. Values: ![]() ![]() Default: standby | |
addif | |
Sets an IP interface for communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair. You must set a peer IP address for each interface. | |
remif | |
Removes an IP interface from communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair. | |
def | |
Defines the list of IP interfaces available for communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair. | |
adver | |
Sets the length of time, in seconds, between Alteon primary advertisements. | |
order [0-255] | |
Failback/Failover order is an extension of Switch HA mode that enables failover within a cluster of more than two (and up to four) Alteons. There is always a single primary in a cluster, based on priority and a Failback/Failover order value, as follows: ![]() ![]() ![]() Note: In topologies with multiple Alteon peers, session mirroring should be in broadcast mode, not unicast. To avoid a broadcast storm over the network due to session mirroring, Radware recommends allocating a special VLAN for this purpose. Default: 255 Note: Radware recommends that you change the default value. | |
srvpbkp disable|enable | |
Enables or disables server processing on backup in HA Switch mode. Note: This option is available only in the Command Line Interface and not in the Web Based Management interface. | |
filtpbkp disable|enable | |
Enables or disables filter processing on backup in HA Switch mode. Values: ![]() ![]() Response traffic from the primary Alteon is routed directly to the clients without reaching the backup Alteon. Default: disable | |
haid [0-255] | |
Specifies the identifier for an Alteon pair configured for high availability when two such pairs use the same switch and VLAN. In a network configuration with more than one pair of Alteons in the same subnet, and where Switch HA mode is in use, Alteon pairs might have the same floating MAC address. Network issues may occur when multiple devices share the same MAC address because the floating MAC address depends on the HA ID and vADCs with the same HA ID will have the same floating MAC address. To resolve this issue, make sure that HA IDs are unique in the subnet/VLAN. Default: 0 Note: When set to 0, Alteon ignores the HA ID. | |
cur | |
Displays the current high availability configuration. |
