Configuring a Working Mode for an APS Group

A working mode can be configured for an APS group. The NE40E-X3  ME60    supports APS working modes, including automatic APS switching, and delayed switchback with the wait to restore (WTR) time configured. An APS working mode must be configured on a protect interface.

Run:

system-view

The system view is displayed.

Run:

interface interface-type interface-number

Or, run:

controller cpos cpos-number

The interface view is displayed.

Run:

aps mode { one2one bidirection | one-plus-one { bidirection | unidirection } }

A working mode is configured for the APS group. The configuration of an APS working mode takes effect after the shutdown and undo shutdown commands are run on the protect interface.

Run:

system-view

The system view is displayed.

Run:

interface interface-type interface-number

Or, run:

controller cpos cpos-number

The protect interface view of the APS group is displayed.

Run:

aps revert wtr-time

The WTR time is set for the APS group.

NOTE:

If two different switchback delays are set on two protect interfaces in APS groups on two ends of a link, the effective switchback delay depends on one of the following situations:

If one-plus-one unidirection is configured, the switckback delays of both protect interfaces take effect after the working interfaces recover.

If one2one bidirection or one-plus-one bidirection is configured, the switchback delay of the protect interface on the device with the working interface recovering later than the other working interface takes effect on both protect interfaces.
