Power on both modems at the same time. Observe the CRS-170A Online LEDs to see which modem is

the Online modem. Monitor the CLIs for both modems to confirm the following:
Online modem CLI displays:

1:1 Redundancy (Auto Detected)

Redundancy: PARAM File Connection Established.

Redundancy: Sending PARAM File...

Offline modem CLI displays:

1:1 Redundancy (Auto Detected)

Redundancy: Received PARAM File...

On the Online modem, view the CLI 1:1 Redundancy Configuration page (Figure 4-3) to confirm that the

correct Management IP Addresses and Prefix Lengths display for the Local and Redundant Units.

Then, press ‘T’ to set the Traffic IP Address, and ‘M’ to set the Traffic Subnet Prefix Length (these also

need to be in the same subnet as the Management IP addresses).
