
If Media Most architecture is used, no FTP support is allowed using any
Ethernet port.
If you are using FTP services:
1 In NEXIO Config , click the IP Config tab (see page 82).
2 In the Role list, select FTP LAN for the appropriate Ethernet connection (typically
Ethernet 3 or Ethernet 4).
Redundant Ethernet Configuration
NEXIO AMP supports redundant Ethernet. Redundant Ethernet requires two
physical Ethernet switch infrastructures, one supporting the Ethernet 1 connections
and the other supporting the Ethernet 2 connections. If one Ethernet port or
infrastructure fails, operation continues using the redundant port.
The two physical infrastructures must be supported by separate switches; or switch
infrastructures. The two physical infrastructures must be of the same caliber
hardware. For example, do not use a 1000BASE-T infrastructure on one side and a
100BASE-T infrastructure on the other side.
If you need to enter values for Ethernet 3 or higher, enter the appropriate IP
address(es) in NEXIO
Config — LLM tab, NetDiskServer boxes (see LLM on
page 89 ).
Warning: The redundant LAN feature is not designed to handle situations
where different networks are missing. For example, if Ethernet 1 cable is
pulled from node 1, pulling an Ethernet 2 cable from any other node will
cause Ethernet data flow to the NEXIO LAN to stop. In other words, any
one network can totally fail, but one network must remain intact.
The following Ethernet switches can be used for redundant Ethernet connectivity:

NXES40024

NXES40048

NXES45024
