Redundancy refers to the availability of a component to substitute for a failed component. Adding extra NICs can make it fault tolerant in terms of the network connectivity.
Key Takeaway: To increase the uptime of the server, add some more NICs with power backup systems. This ensures that a working NIC can be available at times of NIC failure.
