Detailed explanation-1: -Network redundancy is process of providing multiple paths for traffic, so that data can keep flowing even in the event of a failure. Put simply: more redundancy equals more reliability. It also helps with distributed site management. The idea is that if one device fails, another can automatically take over.
Detailed explanation-2: -Redundancy: The inclusion of extra components so that a system can continue to work even if individual components fail, for example by having more than one path between any two connected devices in a network. Fault Tolerance: Can continue to function even in the event of individual component failures.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is Internet Redundancy? Businesses get internet redundancy by installing a secondary connection that runs on a different backbone than their primary connection. If there’s an internet outage on the primary connection, the secondary one will kick in to keep your business humming along.
Detailed explanation-4: -Redundancy is a good thing, in case some routers fail because then packets will be rerouted and still successfully send. It is a method for ensuring network availability in case of a network device or path failure and unavailability.
