Circuit Options Parameters
Use the following descriptions as guidelines when you configure the circuit
options parameters.
Parameter: Circuit Type
Default: Normal
Options: Primary | Normal
Function: Specifies whether or not the circuit over the selected leased line uses the
dial backup service. These lines are not part of the backup pool. For a
normal, that is, standard leased circuit, the router does not provide a
backup if the original circuit fails. For a primary circuit, the router does
provide a backup to carry traffic.
Instructions: Accept the default, Normal, if you do not want a backup circuit for the
data going across this line. Select Primary if you want to use the dial
backup service.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.1.4.1.1.31
Parameter: Backup Pool ID
Default: None
Range: 1 to 255
Function: Identifies the backup pool for the primary circuit.
Instructions: If you select Primary in the Circuit Type parameter, enter the ID of the
backup line pool that this circuit should use. If you select Normal for the
Circuit Type parameter, Site Manager does not allow you to enter a
backup pool ID.
You must create a backup pool before you can specify a circuit as
primary. The router first creates the circuit as a normal circuit. See
Chapter 4 for instructions on creating a backup pool.
