Cable a Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet HA Node

The following procedure explains how to cable a Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet High Availability (HA) node using single rear interface support.

Insert one end of an Ethernet cable into wancom1 or wancom2 on the rear panel of Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet #1. The release tab on the RJ-45 jack clicks into place when you insert it properly.

Attention:
The ECB 4.0.0 Release enables support for High Availibility using the Wancom1 or Wancom2 ports. With this enhancement you can use ECB as HA with either wancom1 or wancom2 or both wancom1 and wancom2 ports (wancom2 as redundant interface). Please note, support for this feature is available on X8-2 hardware. For Wancom2 support, connect the cable between the Wancom2 ports on both hardware (similar to Wancom1).
Review the Cabling diagram:

Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable into the corresponding management interface on the rear panel of the Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet #2 as shown in the following illustration.
For example, If you use wancom1 or wancom2 on Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet #1, then you connect it to wancom1 or wancom2 on Netra Server X8-2 for Acme Packet #2.
