https://community.hpe.com/t5/switches-hubs-and-modems/the-best-way-to-implement-switch-redundancy-in-routed-vlan/m-p/3520699#M4894 We have 2 core switches HP9304. Redundancy is implemented via SRP between HP9304. Servers are connected to core switches via a pair of HP5304 switches. Some servers are connected to 1 HP5304, another to 2 HP5304. As I can see HP5304 is a single point of failure. Now HP5304 works as a layer 2 switch. We want to use HP5304 as a layer 3 switch. <BR />May we do such thing as:<BR />-servers are connected to both HP5304. <BR />-HP5304 implements redundancy with XRRP<BR />-each HP5304 is connected to both HP9304<BR />-HP9304 implements redundancy with SRP ?

But that is not only a switch feature.<BR />Visit Intel for more information<BR /><A href="http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-009747.htm" target="_blank">http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-009747.htm</A><BR /><BR />regards<BR />Thilo Sat, 30 Apr 2005 14:38:30 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/switches-hubs-and-modems/the-best-way-to-implement-switch-redundancy-in-routed-vlan/m-p/3520700#M4895 Thilo Schüler-Mach 2005-04-30T14:38:30Z
