STBY-SPE (Standby SPE)
A high or critical reliability system contains two switch processing elements
(SPEs). The first such element is known as the Active SPE. The Active SPE is
currently responsible for all call processing, administration, and maintenance
activities that are being performed by the system. The other SPE is known as the
Standby SPE. The Standby SPE becomes the Active SPE whenever the current
Active SPE fails. The Standby SPE does not perform call processing or
administration activities. However, it does perform maintenance activities, but
these activities are carried out completely under the direction of the Active SPE in
order to monitor and maintain the health of the Standby SPE.

The Standby SPE is always in one of three modes: Standby, Maintenance, or
Down. Usually, the Standby SPE is in Standby Mode. In this mode,

1. The Switch Control (SW-CTL) on the Standby SPE Network Control circuit
pack is isolated from the TDM Bus so that it does not interfere with
