Abstract
A method and mechanism operating within the Application layer of the architectural model for maintaining high availability in a two node computer network which utilizes alternate pathing. A failover mechanism operating within the Application layer monitors the original, primary network path. Upon detecting a failure of the primary path, the failover mechanism halts monitoring of the primary connection, configures the alternate network interface with the parameters of the primary network interface, and brings up the backup interface.
