Return Path Redundancy for PLC and Web Services<br />

PAGE 40<br />

Increase the Reliability of your <strong>Plex</strong> and PLC Integration with<br />

Return Path Redundancy.<br />

If your implementation of <strong>Plex</strong> is using PLC Integration or<br />

Web Services this is something you should be considering<br />

to ensure the <strong>Plex</strong> Manufacturing Cloud Data Center can<br />

talk back to your local servers with redundancy. <strong>Plex</strong> has<br />

Global Traffic Manager (GTM) capability from our Data<br />

Center that will allow you to create a fault tolerant path to a<br />

secondary server. This is very useful in the event of a server<br />

hardware failure at your location so that <strong>Plex</strong> can redirect<br />

the Web Services traffic to a secondary server and eliminate<br />

any outage in your local web services.<br />

Global Traffic Manager requires that you have static IP<br />

address assigned to each of your local Web Services servers<br />

so that <strong>Plex</strong> can direct the returning traffic from our Data<br />

Center to your local server. The <strong>Plex</strong> Global Traffic Manager<br />

will constantly be checking the status of the path to these<br />

two servers so that it knows when<br />

a redirected path needs to be taken.<br />

To learn more about this option, please submit a USR in <strong>Plex</strong><br />

and assign it to the <strong>IT</strong> Services team.<br />
