The HealthCheck menu includes the following options:
Controlling communication with the network access
devices using the CLI
To stop communication between the Nortel SNAS 4050 and a network access
device, use the following command:
/cfg/domain #/switch #/dis
Enter apply to apply the change immediately.
/cfg/domain #/switch #/hlthchk
followed by:
interval <interval>
Sets the time interval between checks for switch
activity.
• interval is an integer that indicates the time
interval in seconds (
s), minutes (m), or hours (h).
The valid range is 60s (1m) to 64800s (18h). The
default is 1m (1 minute).
deadcnt <count>
Specifies the number of times the Nortel SNAS 4050
will repeat the check for switch activity when no
heartbeat is detected.
•
count is an integer in the range 1–65535 that
indicates the number of retries. The default is 3.
If no heartbeat is detected after the specified number of
retries, the Nortel SNAS 4050 enters status-quo mode.
sq-int <interval>
Sets the time interval for status-quo mode, after which
the network access device moves all clients into the
Red VLAN.
•
interval is an integer that indicates the time
interval in seconds (
s), minutes (m), or hours (h).
The valid range is 0 to 64800s (18h). The default is
1m (1 minute).
Note: If the switch is not going to be used in the Nortel SNA network,
Nortel recommends deleting the switch from the Nortel SNAS 4050
domain, rather than just disabling it.
