MAC address of shared LAN interface. It should be same for both individual RipEX2 units. This MAC

address has to differ from other MAC addresses used in unit. It is possible to use e.g. VRRP type of

addresses: 00:00:5E:00:01:XX.

To prevent a collision with broadcast addresses (in case of Flexible protocol usage), the address

must not be ended with :FF:FF:FF.

• Virtual IP

This address has to fit into range of addresses used for the relevant network interface (e.g. ETH 1)

and will be used as shared IP address for LAN interface. The radio address use used according to

setting in SETTINGS/Interfaces/Radio/IP - the same address has to be set in both radio modems.

• Unit chassis position

Listbox {Unit A; Unit B}, default = "Unit B"

Position of the unit in HS chassis, set Unit A for unit in A position and vice versa.

• Fallback time

Time in seconds. The time delay to stay on the standby unit, after all alarms are solved.

• Guard mode

Listbox {INCLUDE; EXCLUDE}, default = "INCLUDE"

Defines the behavior of guarding of ETH interfaces. INCLUDE requires all guarded lines in UP status

– if one of these guarded lines is not in UP state, alarm occurs and the switching to the standby unit

is executed.

• Guard ETH1 .. ETH5 active

Listbox {On; Off}, default = "Off"

Switches on guarding of the individual ETH link.

• Toggle now

This button allows to switch from unit Active status to the non-active.

It will not be possible if:

○ The second unit is in alarm status.

○ The HW MODE selector is not set to AUTO.

○ The unit is in not-active status.

Note

It is possible to change the active status from the A to the B unit using shall command

“rrcmd rrhstdby web passivate” and back from A to B using command “rrcmd rrhstdby

web activate”. Both units should be without errors for the SW sw itching.
