LAN Connectivity

Global Server Operation — Fri, 15 Nov 2002 17:21:28 GMT

Server: N4000 with 11i
Currently, a single port is utilized for lan connectivity which does not have failover. The recommendation was to add a second port connecting to a different switch, and purchase Auto Port aggregation software for failover capability if one of the two ports dies. To address this we are looking to purchase HP Auto-Port Aggregation Media. Can someone validate that this is the software we are looking for, and that we do not need to purchase any additional hardware of software to make this work

I'm no expert with APA but I believe it should do what you want. Check out these 2 links:

If you don't get enough info from these links or you would like more opinions, post your question in the HP-UX > networking forum. I expect you'll get a lot more replies.
