Lan Redundancy - Polycom RMX 1500 Administrator's Manual

LAN Redundancy

LAN Port Redundancy is available on the RMX 1500/2000/4000. LAN
Redundancy enables the redundant LAN port connection to
automatically replace the failed port by using another physical connection
and NIC (Network Interface Card). When a LAN port fails, IP network
traffic failure is averted and network or endpoints disconnections do not
occur.
The flag LAN_REDUNDANCY is enabled by default (YES). It enables
LAN port redundancy on RMX 2000/4000 RTM LAN Card and RMX 1500
LAN ports on the RTM IP 1500. For example, on the RMX 2000/4000 RTM
LAN card should the LAN 2 port fail, then LAN1 is available as a backup.
On the RMX RTM IP 1500 should the LAN 2 port fail, then LAN 1 is
available as a backup.
