FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Network redundancy is the principle of using backup network resources to minimize or prevent downtime if there’s a power outage, hardware malfunction, human error, system failure, or cyber attack. It involves running alternative instances of core network services and building duplicate network infrastructure.

Detailed explanation-2: -Network redundancy is a communications pathway that has additional links to connect all nodes in case one link goes down.

Detailed explanation-3: -Redundancy is used in system design with the purpose of increasing reliability. It is found in many engineering systems such as bridges, distribution systems, process plants and communication systems. Redundancy may be defined as the provision of more than one means of performing a required function.

Detailed explanation-4: -Redundancy is an engineering term that means “the duplication of critical components or functions of a system with the intention of increasing reliability of the system, usually in the form of a backup or fail-safe, or to improve actual system performance.”

Detailed explanation-5: -I like to provide redundancy by implementing exact duplicate systems in key spots in the network. For example, a core switch will be two identical switches. When I say identical, I mean they should be the same model, running the same software, and they should have the same connections, as much as possible.
