  • SOFTWARE AND METHODS FOR RECOVERING A NETWORK NODE THAT HAS EXPERIENCED A FAULT
    Publication number: 20130067276
    Abstract: A method and system of recovering a system that has experienced a fault includes a backup device to enable access of a network through the interface in response to the fault. The system includes a main operational portion that controls operation of the system under normal conditions. However, if a fault occurs, then the backup device can be selected to take over control of the system so that data can be retrieved from a backup storage to recover the system. The backup device includes software and/or hardware components to enable the system to access a network even though the main operational portion may not be functioning properly.
