You'll have to tell us the context. Where did you get the wording below and what is it in reference too? It sounds like a bunch of "hand waving" that might make more sense with some context, but might not. Very few companies would implement multiple, parallel networks to meet availability goals, but some might. The sentence at the end doesn't fit. Did it come from somewhere else? Or maybe it fits if you read this as advertising material from a service provider. Are they trying to justify why a customer should use them for redundancy or something? It's impossible to tell. And I have a question for you. What does 42 mean? Thanks. Priscilla >---------------------------------------- >"Multiple networks, however, are extremely expensive >to build and >maintain.
