REDUNDANCY
The 6H262-18 supports redundancy between the GPIM ports. Only one of the two GPIM ports on
the 6H262-18 is active at one time. The port with link status showing (either a green LED, solid or
blinking, or an amber LED) is the active port. If both ports show a link, GPIM 1 is the active port.
The default port for the primary port link is GPIM 1.
