Configuring Failover
The following figure shows the fields that appear on the Network Æ Host Settings screen when the “enabled” option is selected from the Failover menu and the DHCP option is not checked. If the DHCP option is checked, no further configuration is needed.
Network Æ Host Settings Screen With Failover Enabled
With failover enabled, the secondary Ethernet interface becomes bonded to the primary Ethernet interface, and the secondary Ethernet interface becomes active only if the primary Ethernet port is not available. As a result, the values entered in the fields on the screen shown in Network Æ Host Settings Screen With Failover Enabled apply to the single bond0 interface.
