Hi All

I have a server connected to 2 switches and need to implement
primary/backup scenario on the ports connected to the server from both
switches
so edge port in switch 1 is primary and edge port in switch 2 is backup and
don't forward traffic unless port of switch 1 fails

how can be achieved ?
I think of using STP but I'm not sure if edge ports can help if edge port
of switch 2 is in blocking state

Any suggestion ?

Thanks
