When adding an additional B310 in HA, this would result in full hardware redundancy: any component may fail without having an impact on the performance and reliability of the core network.
Is it possible to achieve more or less the same redundancy and performance with Peplink rugged switches as core switches? Their performance is great, but unfortunately they are not stackable. I was thinking of using RSTP to solve this issue, but the B310 doesn’t run RSTP on its LAN interfaces as it’s not considered to be a switch.
Are there any other possiblities to achieve full core hardware redundancy in the Peplink ecosystem? Thanks.
We have been looking at the same as we are looking for a enterprise type redundancy level on our vessel based platforms. Unfortunately without success.
Hello @PeterDedecker
We have been using the Peplink 2.5G Rugged SD-Switches for the High Availability you asked about. The difference is that we are using the Peplink Balance 1350EC model for the routers as a minimum; this way, not only are all the Peplink devices redundant, but each device also has redundant power (two independent power circuits).
