2.5 Front - Port Types
Network Pairs: Network Pairs are connected inline in the same way an appliance would normally be installed to the network. Network port 1 connects to one endpoint, and Network port 2 connects to the endpoint on the opposite end of the link. Network Pairs have a multi-tiered fail-open mechanism that allows them to preserve network connectivity in the event of an appliance failure, or even a power failure to the DURAstream™.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
11
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
Appliance Pairs: Appliance pairs connect the appliance to the DURAstream™ in the same way that it would normally connect to a network. Appliance ports provide connectivity between the network traffic and the appliance. In addition to providing the appliance with inline network traffic, appliance pairs will also send heartbeat packets to
monitor the health of the appliance. The DURAstream™ uses this information to decide if
the appliance should be inline or cut off from live traffic.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
12
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
Serial Port: The serial port can be used to connect to the DURAstream™ Bypass Switch using a DB9 M/F straight through cable. Using a terminal emulator such as Tera Term or Putty, the serial port may be accessed for login and configuration using the CLI interface.
Management Port: The management port can be used to connect to the DURAstream™ Bypass Switch using a standard copper ethernet RJ-45 cable. Using a terminal emulator such as Tera Term or Putty, the management may be accessed for login and configuration using the CLI interface using Telnet.

DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
2.6 Front - Power & Status Indicators
On the front panel, the power status of the device can be determined through three indicators labeled “POWER 1”, “POWER 2”, and “STATUS”.
The LEDs located next to each power label will illuminate green when a power supply is connected and switched ON.
When the power indicators illuminate red, it indicates that there is either not a power supply connected, or it is not switched ON.
Although only one power source is required to power the DURAstream™, use of a second independent power source is strongly recommended to assure maximum link uptime.
The “STATUS” LED indicator flashes green during the boot-up cycle and turns solid
green upon a successful boot sequence indicating the DURAstream™ is operational.
2.7 Rear - Power Ports
Each DURAstream™ has two power ports on the back. These dual redundant power ports should be connected to power supplies on two separate circuits to ensure maximum link uptime. These LED indicators function in unison with the “POWER 1”, and “POWER 2” indicators on the front of the device.

5 Bypass Terminology Explanation
5.1 Overview
DURAstream™ Bypass Switches allow you to customize various attributes of the
heartbeat packets that are used to determine appliance health. They are shipped programmed with recommended settings, but can be changed dynamically. The default settings are suited for most use cases, but can be easily modified to change the parameters of how the DURAstream™ interacts with the appliance.
5.2 Heartbeat Frequency
The frequency setting will determine how often heartbeats are sent out to the appliance. Setting the frequency setting to 100ms will cause the bypass switch to send out a total of 10 heartbeats every second.
As the heartbeat transmission rate is increased, the responsiveness to an appliance failure can be increased.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
22
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.3 Heartbeat Expiration
The Heartbeat Expiration configuration controls the length of time that the DURAstream™
will wait before considering a heartbeat lost. Setting the Heartbeat Expiration to 200ms will cause all heartbeats that have not arrived back at the DURAstream™ within 200ms to be considered lost. If they are received after this 200ms period of time, they will not be considered a successful heartbeat.
In scenarios where the appliance is expected to have some delay, a longer Heartbeat Expiration setting may be more suitable.
In scenarios where minimal latency is expected to be introduced to the link by the appliance, a shorter Heartbeat Expiration setting may be more suitable.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
23
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.4 Heartbeat Fail Count
The Heartbeat Fail Count controls how many consecutive heartbeats must be missed in
order for the DURAstream™ to determine that action should be taken to bypass the
appliance.
The lower the fail count is set to, the faster the DURAstream™ will take action to bypass the appliance. This is recommended for scenarios where network traffic flow has priority over appliance control over traffic.
The higher the fail count is set to, the greater the time the DURAstream™ will wait before
it takes action to bypass the appliance. This is recommended for scenarios where appliance control over traffic is critical.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
24
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.5 Heartbeat Reactivation Count
The Heartbeat Reactivation Count controls how many consecutive heartbeats must be passed in order for the DURAstream™ to determine that the appliance should be put back inline on the link.
The lower the Reactivation count is set to, the faster the DURAstream™ will put the appliance back inline. This is recommended for scenarios where appliance control over traffic is critical.
The higher the Reactivation count is set to, the longer the DURAstream™ will wait before putting the appliance back inline. This is recommended for scenarios where network traffic flow has priority over appliance control over traffic.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
25
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.6 Heartbeat Direction
The Heartbeat Direction setting controls direction that heartbeats are inserted in. By default (UNI), the heartbeats will always transmit out the odd port, and be received on the even port. Setting this field to BIDI will cause each appliance port to both transmit and receive heartbeats simultaneously.
BiDi is recommended for appliances which are designed to monitor both ingress and egress sides of traffic flow.
Datacom Systems Inc. 2016
26
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.7 Heartbeat Packet Type
The Heartbeat Packet setting determines the format of the heartbeat packet that is sent out.
It’s recommended to choose the heartbeat type that matches the network traffic, and also
the type of traffic that the appliance is designed to pay attention to.
If an appliance is looking primarily at TCP exchanges, a TCP heartbeat is likely to give the most accurate measurement of the health of the appliance.
The following packet types are available:
Ethernet 0x88b5 ICMP echo IPX TCP-SYN UDP

27
DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.8 System Bypass Modes
5.8.1 Normal
When set to Normal mode, the DURAstream™ will transmit heartbeats to the appliance to
monitor its health. If the DURAstream™ determines that the appliance is healthy based on user specified criteria, it will direct traffic through the appliance ports.
If heartbeats do not arrive on the appliance ports, the DURAstream™ will switch to bypass
mode. In this mode traffic will bypass the appliance and be directly routed from one network port to another. The rerouting of traffic does not cause link loss on the network ports, which minimizes the transition time between the appliance being inline, and bypassing it.

The high availability feature is available in DS-1406 and DS-2408 models. The feature makes use of all 4 appliance ports on the bypass switch. When activated, the bypass switch can only be used to route traffic from a single network link.
High Availability mode reserves the second pair of appliance ports and assigns them to the first pair of network ports as backup appliance ports.
If both appliance pairs are not operational (heartbeats are missing) the network pair will bypass as it does in Normal mode. The DURAstream™ sends traffic directly between network ports, removing both appliances from the stream of traffic.

5.8.3 Manual Inline
When set to Manual Inline mode, the DURAstream™ will forcefully put a connected appliance inline. No heartbeats are transmitted in this mode, meaning that the DURAstream™ is not able to monitor the health of the appliance.
When put into this mode, loss of link to the appliance ports will not cause the traffic to bypass. This mode can be used when testing a new appliance to prevent the bypass switch from going into bypass mode.

DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.8.4 Manual Bypass
When set to Manual Bypass mode, the DURAstream™ will isolate the appliance from the network link. No traffic is sent to the appliance, however heartbeats are still sent in order to maintain a record of the appliance’s health.
This mode is generally used when the appliance needs to be taken out of the stream of traffic, but link and network connectivity cannot be interrupted.
When switching to this mode from all other modes with the exception of Passive Bypass, there is no link downtime for the network endpoints. When switching from Passive Bypass, there is a brief link loss of connection that is mostly dependant on the negotiation speed of the Network Endpoints.

DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
5.8.5 Passive Bypass
When set to Passive Bypass mode, the DURAstream™ will isolate itself and the appliance from the network link. A passive connection to the network will be created, where the Network Endpoints directly negotiate speed with each other, rather than the Network Pair.
During this time if there is an active appliance connected to the DURAstream™, heartbeats
will be sent out to monitor it’s health, however it will not receive network traffic.
This mode is used for link or bypass troubleshooting the DURAstream™ by allowing the
network to function as if it were not inline.
If there is an active connection between the Network Endpoints and the DURAstream™, switching to this mode will result is a brief loss of connection that is mostly dependant on the negotiation speed of the Network Endpoints.
In the rare event of a power loss to the DURAstream™, the network pair will automatically assume this mode, allowing traffic to continue to flow.

Usage
Guidelines
Use this command to set the period of time that the bypass switch will wait, starting at the point of transmission, before considering a heartbeat packet to be lost. If it takes more than the defined period of time for a heartbeat to arrive at the second appliance port of the pair, it will be counted as lost. This heartbeat loss will count towards the “Bypass Set Fail” and “Bypass Set Reactivate” command counters.
Syntax
BYPASS SET EXPIRE (100-10000)
Example
BYPASS SET EXPIRE 200
Command
Notes
The number field in the command indicates the number of milliseconds
before counting the heartbeat as lost.
It’s recommended to set the expire count to be low enough that the
DURAstream will be able to detect abnormalities, but high enough that it doesn’t occasionally drop heartbeats during normal operation.
Usage
Guidelines
Use this command to set the number of heartbeats that must be missed consecutively to trigger a failover. Heartbeats are considered missed once they hit the threshold defined by the “bypass set expire” command.
Syntax
BYPASS SET FAIL (1-30)
Example
BYPASS SET FAIL 3
Command
Notes
Once the number of consecutive heartbeats lost reaches the value set
by this command, traffic will directly be sent between the network port pair.

DURAstream™ DS-1404, DS-1406, DS-2408 FASTstart Guide
7 Configuration Examples
7.1 Single Copper Appliance for a 1G Fiber Link.
Use Case: A single appliance scenario can be used on the DS-1404, DS-1406, and DS-
2408 models. It is used when a single appliance needs to be installed on a single network link through the bypass switch. A single appliance solution requires one pair of network ports, and one pair of appliance ports.
The network traffic will be directed to the inline appliance through the switch. In the event that a failure is detected in the appliance, traffic is redirected around the appliance. This allows the network connection to retain link state and experience minimal downtime from the appliance failure.
In this scenario, the network link is 1G fiber, and the monitoring tool is 1G copper. It would be difficult to otherwise install the copper tool onto the fiber network. In addition to acting as a bypass switch, the Durastream™ also provides media conversion for the tool.
