Swapping the active network

In the highly unlikely event that the active network (X or Y) develops a malfunction,
you can swap over to the standby network, making this the active one.
Note: The swap function does not swap control data, as this non-audio data finds its
own way through the network. This allows the router to swap to the inactive link, even
if the active link is broken or removed.
>> To check the health of the active network

check the status of the active HyperMac link. If it green the link is good, and if it is red
