2.1.9. High Availability

PNS supports multi-node (2+) failover clustering, as well as load balance clusters (most load balance configurations use external devices). Clustering support must be licensed separately. PNS supports the following failover methods:

  • Transferring the Service IP address

  • Transferring IP and MAC address

  • Sending RIP messages
