Creating a Static Reflector and Group
Static Reflector Groups are Failover Groups. Each Static Reflector must exist inside a Static Reflector Group. Only one Static Reflector in a Group may be active. All other Static Reflectors in the Group remain Standby mode waiting to take over if the active Static Reflector cannot be reached.
ICE Agent is a downloadable server component available on the Instant Connect Support Portal located at https://support.instantconnectnow.com
