Redirect or Stop Any Customer Applications Using
the G4SA
Redirect or Stop Any Customer Applications Using the G4SA
1. Notify end users that applications will be temporarily unavailable.
2. Perform any actions necessary to redirect or stop customer applications.
Stop the Communications Lines and SWAN Concentrator Line
Using the G4SA
1. Abort the communications lines.
•
To stop a single line, use the SCF ABORT LINE command:
ABORT LINE $line-name
•
To stop the lines in an Expand multiline path, use the SCF ABORT PATH
command:
ABORT PATH $path-name
2. Verify that the lines are in the STOPPED state.
•
To verify a single line is stopped, use the SCF STATUS LINE command (see
Example 3-13):
STATUS LINE $line-name
•
To verify an Expand multiline path is stopped, use the SCF STATUS PATH
command (see Example 3-14):
STATUS PATH $path-name
Note. The actions required to perform this step depend on the customer’s application.
Note. A SWAN concentrator has dual Ethernet ports, which can be configured to connect to
ports on two different G4SAs; only one Ethernet connection is needed for full function. If the
SWAN concentrator’s second Ethernet port is connected to another G4SA (other than the
G4SA that you are replacing), you do not need to perform the following steps. However, the
SWAN concentrator will not be fault-tolerant while the G4SA is being replaced.
