Initiating Frame Relay Backup Switchover/Switchback

Frame Relay backup DLCIs can be configured (as described in

Chapter 7

) to automat-

ically become operational a set time after failure of a primary DLCI, and to switch
back to the primary a set time after the primary becomes operational again. These
automatic settings can be overridden via Frame Relay Backup Operations (

[B], [J]

from the Main Menu).

From the Frame Relay Backup Operations Menu:

To switch from a primary to one of its backups, press

[A]

.

To switch from a backup to a primary, press

[B]

.

In either case, enter (as prompted) the requested information to identify the primary
and backup.
