Fail Over Settings
Fail Over is the process of allowing a second Network interface to backup the Primary (Wan
Connection) configured interface. It uses a Dead Remote Host reachability (Ping) mechanism to
determine when it should Fail Over to the second interface. Fail Over automatically uses the
Primary Network configured DNS Servers as the Remote Host, if one is not configured.
