Hello,
When using Baynetworks Frame Relay switches, has anyone know how a port, configured as PVC-Backup, works?
Let´s assume there's two main locations, which ideally hold same addressing on both WAN/PVC and LAN interfaces, and a bunch of remote nodes. Every node has one PVC pointing toward MainLocation1. MainLocation2 is provided a PVC, which is expected to be active as soon as the one of MainLocation1 goes down whatsoever. So, as to automatically have Mainlocation2's PVC take over aggregation traffic, I figured out 2 scenarios:
1. Configure remote node's frame relay switches to point its corresponding PVC towards MainLocation2. This solution, I think, will represent time as many nodes this network may have.
2. Configure MainLocation2's PVC as PVCBackup. Under this scenario I am not pretty sure how it works...can any give me a pointer on this? I guess involves configuring commands such as VCBackupCalledIpAddr, VcBackupCalledDlci, etc...not pretty sure though.
Thank you,
