About Redundancy Group Failover

A redundancy group is a collection of objects that fail over as a group. Each redundancy group monitors a set of objects (physical interfaces), and each monitored object is assigned a weight. Each redundancy group has an initial threshold of 255. When a monitored object fails, the weight of the object is subtracted from the threshold value of the redundancy group. When the threshold value reaches zero, the redundancy group fails over to the other node. As a result, all the objects associated with the redundancy group will fail over as well. For more information, refer to Redundancy Group Interface Monitoring.
