Controller Active and Standby
The Axxius 800 can function fully with a single Controller card, however Controller
redundancy is available with two like Controllers (DS1 or DS3) installed. When two
Controllers are installed in a system, one is always Active and the other is Standby. The
Standby can have 2 conditions:
l Hot Standby - meaning that the card is ready to take over for the active and the
switch will not affect service
l Cold Standby - meaning that the card is ready to go active (healthy) but for some
reason (code of the 2 controllers is not the same) it will need to reconfigure the
box when it goes active, which will be service affecting.
There are two ways to identify the status of the Controllers.
