First, enable link state propagation on the radios if you haven't already, so that when the link is totally out (in a bad rain storm) it will bring down the optics simulating a cut fiber cable. The rest depends on how diverse the paths in and out of that site are.
If both links are in parallel with each other on the same path, they should fade equally, except for the raindrop difference between H and V if you're running this as a setup with four radios + two OMTs + two dishes. Assuming you have a manually configured OSPF cost for a 10GbE link on the router interfaces on both sides of the link, dealing with a link that changes data rates (and therefore its OSPF cost) proportionally with its current modulation rate can be tricky. If I had to do it, I'd write some custom shell script or python that ran on a trusted internal network system, watching an SNMP OID on the radios on both ends for current modulation rate (example: SNMP poll result of 2 = 4 Gbps, 5 = 6 Gbps, 6 = 10Gb full data rate). Then use the results from that SNMP poll to, in a fully automated way, maintain a persistent ssh session to the routers on both ends of the link and change both ends' OSPF interface costs on the fly, repeatedly, until the rain fade event had passed. This could be done at 5-second intervals. On Fri, Apr 7, 2017 at 5:32 PM, Michael Gawlowski <[email protected]> wrote: > We have some bonded links (2x10Gbps) going up that may experience rain > fade.
