Routing Switch
Figure
57 shows a configuration with two trunks, each in a different Failover
Trigger. Switch 1 is the primary switch for Server 1 and Server 2. Switch 2 is the
primary switch for Server 3 and Server 4. VLAN Monitor is turned on. STP is
turned off.
If all links go down in trigger 1, Switch 1 disables all internal ports that reside in
VLAN 1. If all links in trigger 2 go down, Switch 1 disables all internal ports that
reside in VLAN 2.

Figure
58 shows a configuration with two trunks. VLAN Monitor is turned off, so
only one Failover Trigger is configured on each switch. Switch 1 is the primary
switch for Server 1 and Server 2. Switch 2 is the primary switch for Server 3 and
Server 4. STP is turned off.
If all links in trigger 1 go down, switch 1 disables all internal links to server blades.
