LAN Redundancy
LAN Redundancy enables the redundant LAN port connection to automatically replace the failed LAN port
by using another physical connection and NIC (Network Interface Card). When a LAN port fails, IP network
traffic failure is averted and network or endpoints disconnections do not occur. When LAN cables are
connected to both LAN 1 and LAN 2 ports, the RMX automatically selects which port is active and which is
redundant.
