Use this TLV to assign the active Ethernet Port on a VDAC-ONE card. The upper port is active by default. To activate the lower port, you must send this TLV. Note that Ethernet Link Redundancy is not supported on the SS7 Series 3 card.
Important! If you enable Ethernet Link Redundancy (TLV 0x09), the standby Ethernet Port is automatically activated upon failure of the active port.
This TLV also activates the Ethernet Interface of the Maxtrix Controller I/O as follows:
• Activate the Upper Port for Ethernet Interface B.
• Active the Lower Port for Ethernet Interface A.
