ABCs of Network Redundancy - What it is and why it matters
This whitepaper explores how implementing network redundancy can significantly improve reliability and minimise disruptions. There are two main approaches to redundancy: Layer 2 and Layer 3. Layer 2 focuses on providing backup paths within your local area network (LAN) to ensure connectivity if a link fails. Layer 3 redundancy tackles routing functions and IP addressing, ensuring seamless failover if a router malfunctions. Choosing the right approach depends on your specific needs. The whitepaper also explores the dangers of protocol mismatches within redundant networks, explaining how inconsistencies can lead to instability, connectivity problems, and even data loss.
