<DIV>Hi Noggers,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I’ve never actually delved into fail-over redundancy services before and
wanted to ask the experts for their input/experiences.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My client has a 2+ Telstra ADSL Tail and is concerned about having downtime
and as such wants to do everything possible to prevent loss of money and
service.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>They also have an Aristel Digital Control Unit for routing calls across 3x
PSTN lines. There are 2 other lines for which 1 is for their fax and the other
for ADSL.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I’d like to know what kind of work and hardware is required to get a
fail-over DSL service. Any hardware recommendations is most appreciated.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have been considering using their fax line (which is on a separate line
already) as the fail-over line and just throwing on a low-cost plan on there
with a different ISP.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Suggestions anyone?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On a slightly separate note, my client is also considering moving their
“in-house” file-server over to a VM and are looking for a data-center that can
offer hosting (Brisbane Preferred).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you have anything to offer or know any companies please contact me
off-list.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,<BR></DIV>
