set ethernet

Note This command applies to the AnywhereUSB 24 Plus only.

Purpose

Configures the bonding mode for the Ethernet network. The Hub has two physical Ethernet network ports that use the same MAC address and share one IP address. When both ports are being used, they act as one Ethernet network port.

You can also configure bonding in the web UI. See Ethernet network bonding.

Syntax

set ethernet [option]

Option

bonding=[active-backup|balance-rr]

active-backup

The Hub uses only one of the Ethernet network connections at a time. If one Ethernet network connection fails, all data is sent from the second Ethernet network connection.

balance-rr

The Ethernet network connection alternates between the two ports as the Hub sends data. If one Ethernet network connection fails, all data is sent from the second Ethernet network connection.

Examples

Configure fault tolerance (active backup)

#> set ethernet bonding=active-backup

Configure load balancing (round robin)

#> set ethernet bonding=balance-rr
