Program Redundancy

The BNP supports program level redundancy on all the output services. Program level standby is
configurable using the BNP Element Manager, which allows you to designate any input service as a
"standby program" with the exception of the same service. This redundancy can be configured on
output streams associated with GigE port as well as ASI ports.
The health of the standby program will be checked before failover and the BNP will not perform the
switch if the standby is degraded. In automatic recovery mode, the BNP returns back to the primary
program from the standby program when the primary program recovers from the interruption.
A program in an input TS that has SSM redundancy configured cannot be used as a backup program
for program redundancy.
