186 CHAPTER 10: CONFIGURING MAP ACCESS POINTS
Dual-Homed Direct and Distributed Connections to WX Switches
Figure 11 shows an example of a dual-homed configuration in which one
MAP connection is direct and the other is distributed over the network.
Figure 11 Dual-Homed Direct and Distributed Connections to WX Switches
In this example, the MAP port 1 is directly connected to a WX. The MAP
always attempts to boot first from the directly connected WX. The MAP
attempts to boot using MAP port 2 only if the boot attempt on port 1
fails. If the active data link fails, the WX reboots using the other link.
