Purpose

To determine the status of the synchronization between the main Routing Engine and the backup Routing Engine, display the value of the replication socket field.

Action

user@host> show services pgcp active-configuration

. . . 
Packet gateway configuration:
  Name                                     :  vpg—1              
  IP address                               :  10.10.10.1           
  Port                                     :  2944              
  Status                                   :  In-Service (Registered) 
  Active gateway controller                :  dt3         
  Cleanup timeout [secs]                   :  3600              
  Gate inactivity delay [secs]             :  240               
  Gate inactivity duration (Q-MI ) [secs]  :  86400  
  Replication socket                       :  Disconnected

Meaning

The replication socket can be in one of the following states:

Connected (Ready)—The replication is ready, and it is safe to perform a switchover.
Connected (Syncing)—The replication is synchronizing. It is not safe to perform a switchover.
Connected (Error)—An error occurred in the previous switchover.
Disconnected—The backup Routing Engine is down. It is not safe to perform a switchover because there is no backup Routing Engine.
