Network 1 (Failover)
PremierWave XC HSPA+ provides basic Ethernet to Cellular failover, in the form of a "dead
remote host reachability" mechanism (essentially a ping against a known host). If the remote host
is determined to be not reachable, the device will failover to the cellular interface. If the remote
host is determined to be reachable, the device will failback to the Ethernet interface.
To Configure Network 1 Failover Settings
Using Web Manager
 To modify Failover settings, click Network on the menu and select Network 1 > Failover >
Configuration.
Using the CLI
 To enter the eth0 link command level: enable -> config -> if 1 -> failover
Using XML
 Include in your file: <configgroup name="network failover" instance="eth0">
