Parameter
number: Interface bandwidth in the range 0 to 4000000 kilobits. It defaults to 0.
Description
Use the standby bandwidth command to configure the actual bandwidth that the main
interface uses in backup load sharing.
Use the undo standby bandwidth command to restore the default, that is, 0, to
disable backup load sharing.
When the main interface participates in backup load sharing, the backup center uses
the backup bandwidth that you configured preferentially on the main interface. If it is not
configured, the backup center automatically obtains the information that the system
provides on the physical bandwidth of the main interface. In case the information is not
available, the backup center would require you to assign backup bandwidth to the main
interface.
Before you can use this command, you must use the standby interface command to
specify physical interfaces or logical channels to back up the interface.
