Failover is a feature that improves the reliability and availability of DHCP services by creating redundancy between two DHCP servers. This failover mechanism ensures that if one server becomes unavailable, the other can seamlessly take over the DHCP service, minimizing downtime and disruption to network operations.
DDI orchestrator can be used to manage failover configurations for the following DHCP servers:
Servers can be configured in Hot standby or Load balancing modes, depending on the server type.
Note: Both servers must be in DDI orchestrator for the
functionality to work.
