How to configure VCS?

1. Enter the default IP address 10.44.77.200 in the address bar of your browser to go to the web management interface of the NBS switch. Click the Hot Standby tab (or click Configure in the red box below if the switch is not yet configured)

2. Click Start Setup:


3. Connect both switches using a network cable on their 10GE interfaces. Then, choose Dual-Device Config, and click Next.
4. Select the active switch and click Next.
5. Select the standby switch
6. Select the hot standby interfaces. You are advised to select two adjacent interfaces on a switch and can select up to four interfaces on each device for hot standby. These hot standby interfaces must be [strong]10GE interfaces[/strong]. By default, the active switch has a priority of 200, while the standby switch has a priority of 100. If the priority is changed, a switch with a higher priority will become the active switch.

7. Then, click Next. Use a 10GE cable to connect the hot standby interfaces that you have selected.
8. After the cables are connected, proceed as prompted, and wait for the device to reboot successfully.
Note: To delete the hot standby configuration, ensure that the network cable connecting the hot standby interfaces is disconnected. Failure to do so may result in a loop that can cause network disconnection.
