Example Boot of
Dual-Homed MAP
Figure 16 shows an example of the boot process for a MAP that is dual
homed with a direct connection to WX1 and an indirect connection to
WX2 and WX3. In this configuration, since the MAP is directly connected
to a WX switch, the MAP boots using the directly connected WX switch
regardless of the bias set on any of the WX switches configured for the
MAP. Only in the event of a physical port failure would the MAP attempt
to boot from its port 2.
