HYBRID REDUNDANCY FOR ELECTRONIC NETWORKS |
摘要 |
Aspects of a method and system for hybrid redundancy for electronic networks are provided. A first line card may comprise a first instance of a network layer circuit, a first instance of a physical layer circuit, and an interface to a data bus (e.g., an Ethernet bus) for communicating with a second line card. In response to detecting a failure of the first instance of the network layer circuit, the first instance of the physical layer circuit may switch from processing of a signal received via the first instance of the network layer circuit to processing of a signal received via the interface. The system may comprise a second line card. The second line card may comprise a second instance of the network layer circuit. The second instance of the network layer circuit may be coupled to the data bus. |

1. A system comprising:
a first line card comprising a first instance of a network layer circuit, a first instance of a physical layer circuit, and an interface to a data bus for communication with a second line card, wherein:
said first instance of said physical layer circuit is operable to switch, in response to detection of a failure of said first instance of said network layer circuit, from processing of a signal received via said first instance of said network layer circuit to processing of a signal received via said interface. |
