Yes ... if the IB network goes down ...

But it's not really fault tolerant, as you need the admin network for token 
management, so you could lose IB and have data fail to the Ethernet path, but 
not lose Ethernet.

And it doesn't (or didn't) fail back to IB when IB come live again, though that 
might have changed with 5.0.2.

    Does it fail-back to Etherenet even in runtime? I mean, doesn't fail-back
    happen only during mmstartup?
