Intrinsic high-availability and Helps ensure maximum uptime and availability.
stateful network redundancy modes
NETWORK TRANSPARENCY
Seamless deployment No IP or MAC address—and no changes needed to network configuration—simplifies installation,
saves time, and helps eliminate the risk of hackers discovering devices on the network.
ENTERPRISE-CLASS HIGH AVAILABILITY
Dual-box failover Protects against loss of connectivity due to hardware failure, with automatic configuration
synchronization to simplify administration and remove scope for errors.
Dual-WAN failover Helps prevent loss of connectivity due to ISP WAN link failure.
Dual-WAN load-balancing Enables increased WAN bandwidth for remote sites with the added benefit of protection against loss
of connectivity due to ISP WAN Link failure.
