Changing alternate paths

To change an alternate path, cancel the current alternate path, and then define another path as a

new alternate path.

CAUTION:

You cannot delete all the current alternate paths to substitute newly-added alternate paths for them in

one operation. To replace all the current alternate paths with newly-added alternate paths, you need to

perform more than two operations and leave at least one current alternate path setting when you perform

the first operation. For the detailed procedure, see section 5.5.5.

Replacing All the Alternate Paths with Newly-added Alternate Paths

This section explains how to change all the current alternate paths to newly-added alternate paths

with an example.
The following figure shows the overview of the operation and the status of the alternate paths. When

you delete the current alternate paths (A and B) and add new alternate paths (C and D), you cannot

delete both the current alternate paths (A and B) in one operation because at least one current path

which functions normally has to be configured. In this case, you need to delete the alternate path A

and add the alternate path C, and then apply the setting. After that, you need to delete the alternate

path B and add the alternate path D.
