Setting the ATM Router Redundancy Monitoring Timer
Bay Networks ATM router redundancy uses only one ATM-specific Site Manager
parameter: the ATM Monitoring Timer.
The ATM monitoring timer specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) that the
secondary router waits before beginning the process of becoming the primary
router. By default, if the primary router experiences a loss of signal, it waits 3000
milliseconds for the signal to return. If the signal does not return within that time,
the secondary router begins the process of becoming the primary router.
You can set the ATM monitoring timer to any value from 1 to 65535 milliseconds.
To set the ATM monitoring timer, complete the following tasks:
Note:
