Signaling and Management Redundancy

RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500
On the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500, for Signaling and Management
Redundancy, the MNG port is redundant to the MNG B port and must have a LAN cable
connected.

RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 4000
On the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 4000, for Signaling and Management
Redundancy when LAN_REDUNDANCY = YES and MULTIPLE_SERVICES = NO, the LAN
3 port on the RTM-IP 4000 card is redundant to the LAN 2 port.
LAN ports 4 and 5 are never used.

On the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/RealPresence Collaboration Server
(RMX) 4000 Signaling and Management Redundancy is implemented using the LAN ports on
the RTM-IP card and is dependent on the settings of the LAN_REDUNDANCY and
MULTIPLE_SERVICES System Flags as summarized in Table 1-2
