NImble replication network

Configuring Nimble for replication there's the option to choose between the Management and Data Network for replication traffic

My question is if the chosen replication network , in our case the management , is broken will the replication continue using the DATA as backup or simply stops ?

thanks

Not the case.. If you picked Mgmt network as replication network, replication will just happens there.... And breaking all Mgmt links the data network will not pick up replication traffic...

Tha'ts why we always recommend customer implement at least dual links in every network segement for link resiliency.

Thanks Thomas

that's how we do it as well , just curious if there was "failback" mechanism
