PRIMECLUSTER Global Link Services Configuration and Administration Guide: Redundant Line Control Function 4.1 (for Solaris(TM) Operating System)

3.3.1 Fast switching mode

The following shows the procedure for adding configuration information for Fast switching mode. When sharing NIC used in a virtual interface of the already defined Fast switching mode, RIP mode, and fast switching/RIP switching mode and adding the configuration information, use the same procedure:

1. Create a virtual interface using "hanetconfig create" command. If NICs are shared amongst several virtual interfaces, the same pair of physical interfaces should be specified to create each of the virtual interfaces with "hanetconfig create" command.
   For information, see Section "7.1 hanetconfig Command".

When the Solaris zone is used

If you want to use a virtual interface of fast switching in the Solaris zone, it is necessary to add the configuration as follows;

1. Create a virtual interface using "hanetconfig create" command.
2. After creating the configuration information, activate the concerned virtual interface using the "strhanet" command.
3. Create a zone. For information on how to create a zone, see "3.2.4 Zone setup for Solaris container".
4. Start the zone. The logical virtual interface (sha0:X) will be added to the virtual interface (sha0). The IP address specified during zone creation will be allocated.
