[c-nsp] RPR+ restrictions

[nasir.shaikh at bt.com]

Hi,

I have a couple of 6509s with sup720s(native IOS). I am adding redundant
sup720s to these boxes. As I need to run MPLS on them I can't use
SSO/NSF so my best bet is RPR+.  How can I best utilize the 2 GE ports
on the sup720?  DocCD says that the GE ports on the standby sup720
remain active. Currently I am utilizing the GE ports for a routed (L3)
connection towards the backbone. Do I need to make a redundant routed
connection to the backbone? How does the redundancy work then?
