Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If a hot-standby CR-LSP is established and a primary CR-LSP needs to be adjusted, run the hotstandby-switch force command to switch traffic forcibly to the hot-standby CR-LSP. After the primary CR-LSP has been adjusted, run the hotstandby-switch clear command to disable the forcible switchover function and switch traffic back to the primary CR-LSP.

Precautions

A hot-standby CR-LSP must have been established before the hotstandby-switch force command is used. If this command is run but no hot-standby CR-LSP is established, traffic will be dropped.

Example
