2.10. Take Over
IPScan Probe 600 supports H.A. (high availability) feature to backup the probe in case of any
failure. It is necessary if you want to use two probes (Master Probe and Slave Probe) to
minimize probe downtime.
If Master Probe fails or gets disconnected during the operation, Slave Probe will automatically
take over the Master Probe’s policy, and when the Master Probe is recovered, the Slave Porbe
will be in waiting mode again. The Master Probe and the Slave Probe should be the same
model.
