The hosts are another critical module of TelcoBridges solutions and hosts redundancy will greatly improve the high availability and reliability of your system.

== Recommended Setup ==

=== Recommended Hardware ===

*Recommended host hardware components [[media:FINAL - DATA SHEET TMP7950.pdf|TMP7950 data sheet]].
*Dual power supplies is a huge plus
*The number of network interface needed by a system is application specific, but for TelcoBridges products at least 2 independent network interfaces is needed for controlling the Tmedias and another one to connect to the management network.

=== Warnings ===

*IP Teaming/ IP Bonding - TelcoBridges Hardware '''doesn't''' support IP Teaming. TelcoBridges products '''can't''' work with the host configure with Ip Teaming in the system. TelcoBridges products uses 2 network interfaces to achieve the same goal.
*RAID - It is highly recommended to disable BIOS RAID on the motherboard. Use software RAID instead, also known as MD RAID.

 NOTE: The database and host redundancy mechanism are two separate features, meaning that a database switchover will not necessarily cause a host switchover as well.
