Configuring Routers

Redundant Crosspoint Page

priorities of the different crosspoint card slots in the router. (The number of crosspoint card
slots varies with the router.)

You can change the priority of the crosspoint card slots by selecting one or more entries in
the list and dragging them up or down as required. The entries at the top of the list have
higher priorities; the entries at the bottom of the list have lower priorities. Use standard click,
ctrl-click, and shift-click to select crosspoint slots.

You can also drag your cursor through a number of crosspoint slots to select them.

To move selected crosspoint entries, click on those entries, pause a moment, then drag. The
pause is required to distinguish a move from a drag selection.

Redundant Crosspoint Buttons

This section shows an image of the button panel of the router’s redundant crosspoint mod-
ule. The image varies with the router type. Figure 3-3 on page 57 shows the graphic for an
NV8280. These figures shows the graphics for the NV8140, NV8144, NV8576, and NV8576-
Plus:

You can switch the redundant crosspoint manually by clicking one of the crosspoint buttons
in the graphic. The actual operation differs with the router.

The graphic also reflects crosspoint changes caused by other operators.

This section of the ‘Redundant Crosspoint’ page is “live”: clicking on buttons in this section
causes an immediate change in the router’s crosspoint cards. Changes made outside MRC
are reflected in this section in real time.

See

Manual Redundant Switchover

on page 59 for details.

The router view shows the I/O card slots of the selected router, either from the front or the
