5.5.10 Examples of hardware configurations (using the function for controlling hot standby based on the availability of LAN communications)

This subsection shows examples of hardware configurations with a different hot-standby configuration when the function for controlling hot standby based on the availability of LAN communications is used. These examples assume the use of PC/AT-compatible systems from another company.

Organization of this subsection
