UFD and NIC Teaming

To implement a rapid failover solution, you can use uplink failure detection on a switch with network adapter teaming on a server.

For more information, refer to Network Interface Controller (NIC) Teaming .

For example, as shown previously, the switch/ router with UFD detects the uplink failure and automatically disables the associated downstream link port to the server. To continue to transmit traffic upstream, the server with NIC teaming detects the disabled link and automatically switches over to the backup link in order to continue to transmit traffic upstream.
