1.16 Backup Routes

Using the conﬁguration form on the Backup Routes page can be set backing up primary

connection by other connections to internet/mobile network. For each back up connection can

be deﬁned a priority. Own switching is done based on set priorities and state of the connection

(for Primary LAN and Secondary LAN).

If Enable backup routes switching option is checked, the default route is selected accord-

ing to the settings below. Namely according to status of enabling each of backup route (i.e.

Enable backup routes switching for Mobile WAN, Enable backup routes switching for WiFi

STA, Enable backup routes switching for Primary LAN, Enable backup routes switching for

Secondary LAN or Enable backup routes switching for PPPoE), according to explicitly set

priorities and according to status of connection check (if it is enabled). In addition, network

interfaces belonging to individual backup routes have checked a ﬂag RUNNING. This check

ﬁxes for example disconnecting of an ethernet cable.

If Enable backup routes switching option is not checked, Backup routes system operates

in the so-called backward compatibility mode. The default route is selected based on implicit

priorities according to the status of enabling settings for each of network interface, as the case

may be enabling services that set these network interfaces. Names of backup routes and

corresponding network interfaces in order of implicit priorities:

• Mobile WAN (pppX, usbX)

• PPPoE (ppp0)

• Secondary LAN (eth1)

• Primary LAN (eth0)

Example:

Secondary LAN is selected as the default route only if Create connection to mobile network

option is not checked on the Mobile WAN page, alternatively if Create PPPoE connection

option is not checked on the PPPoE page. To select the Primary LAN it is also necessary

not to be entered IP address for Secondary LAN and must not be enabled DHCP Client for

Secondary LAN.
