Basic PoS Module Configuration Information
APS Module Redundancy
Figure 3-4 is an example of a two-module APS redundancy configuration, in which the
working line and the protection line are terminated in two different PoS modules in the
same BlackDiamond 6800 series switch. This configuration provides simple protection
against both line and module failures.
