High Availability (Ha) - ZyXEL Communications USG 2000 Brochure & Specs

High Availability (HA)

HA is essential to enterprise networks. It ensures
a system or a component to remain continuously
operational for a reasonable, desirable period.
The ZyWALL USG Series provides HA features
such as:
• Multiple WAN ports and configurable load
balancing between ports.
• An auxiliary (backup) Internet connection
known as out-of-band management.
• A backup ZyWALL in case the master ZyWALL
fails (Device HA).
To minimize the impact of single-point failures,
the ZyWALL USG Series supports Device HA to
ensure network availability.
