the dual-homing feature: distributed and nondistributed.
Nondistributed means that both network interfaces (TLAN or ELAN) of
the dual-homing feature are connected to a single Layer 2 switch, which
provides a single point of failure if that switch goes out of service.
Distributed means that the two network interfaces (TLAN or ELAN) of the
dual-homing feature are connected to separate Layer 2 switches, which
provides another level of redundancy and no single point of failure with a
Layer 2 switch. Nortel recommends the use of distributed connections,
however, nondistributed is supported if the cost of the additional data
networking equipment is an issue.
