vDicosDia, Disable or Enable Peer Node

Contents


1   Description

This instruction describes how to disable and enable a given peer node configuration in the managed element.

A peer node configuration can be administratively disabled, for example, for maintenance reasons, or to introduce configuration changes. Disabling a peer node configuration prevents all connections between the own node and this peer node. A prerequisite to disabling a peer node configuration is that there are no established connections to the peer node.

A peer node configuration is enabled to make the configuration operational. This makes it possible to enable all configured outgoing connections to the peer node with one operation.

2   Procedure

2.1   Disable or Enable Peer Node

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Navigate to the DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer managed object, for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,XyzFunction=xyz,DIA-CFG-Application=DIA,DIA-CFG-StackContainer=abc,DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer=abc

  2. Navigate to the peer node to be disabled, for example:

    (DIA-CFG-PeerNodeContainer=abc)>DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=abc

  3. Enter Config mode:

    (DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=abc)>configure

  4. Disable the peer node:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=abc)>enabled=false

    Note:  
    To enable a peer node, set enabled to true.

  5. Commit the setting:

    (config-DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=abc)>commit

    Note:  
    Disabling a peer node configuration prevents all connections between the own node and the peer node. Alarm vDicos, Diameter Peer Node Disabled is issued when the peer node has been disabled.

  6. Verify that the peer node is disabled:

    (DIA-CFG-NeighbourNode=abc)>show enabled

    enabled=false
