    Abstract: A system is configured to: transmit requests to a first device and a second device; receive a first reply from the first device in response to one of the requests; determine an address of the first device based on the first reply; assign a first port to a first network when the first device is a first one of one or more devices that replied to the requests and have a same address as the first device; receive a second reply from the second device in response to another one of the requests; assign a second port to a second network when the address of the second device is the same as the address of the first device; and reassign the second port, from the second network, to the first network when a failure of the first device occurs.
