Handling redundant Connections
I am setting up 5 web servers in a cabinet. I amwondering how best to connect the ethernet from my
provider.
I am getting two redundant RJ45 connections from my
provider. I am presuming that the traffic will
primarily be comming in on one of these lines unless
the network suffers an outage.
Each machine will have two ethernet ports one for a
local network, the other for the internet connection.
Should I run the two ports from my provider to a single
network switch and then to the five servers. Please
suggest the best device.
I will also need to control bandwidth on the five servers.
Thanks for the help.
