set fonic-settings advanced-settings
In the R81.10.X releases, this command is available starting from the R81.10.08 version.
Description
The 1595R wired model has a FONIC (Fail Open Network Interface Card) bypass mechanism implemented between the DMZ and LAN4 ports.
Use this command to switch FONIC between Active and Bypass mode.
The Bypass mechanism is activated when one of these occurs:
-
Power to the appliance is down.
-
There is a critical software failure (using watchdog logic).
These are the two Bypass mechanism modes:
-
Active - The connection between DMZ and LAN4 ports work as a normal system interface and drive data through the appliance, as long as the power is on and the software is valid. If the appliance power is off or the software has a critical problem that prevents it from maintaining a keep-alive mechanism, the Bypass circumvents the DMZ and LAN4 port connection and traffic bypasses the appliance. After power is restored or after a reset, the appliance reboots and the system maintains the bypass between the DMZ/LAN4 ports until the Security Policy is activated. Once the Security Policy is activated, the system will set the Bypass to the mode configured by UI.
-
Force bypass - The connection between the DMZ and LAN4 port is forcibly bypassed and the traffic bypasses the appliance regardless of the software status. After power is restored or a hardware/software reset, the DMZ-LAN4 port connection is still bypassed until you reconfigure the mode and the software system is valid.
