CHAPTER 4. NETWORK CONFIGURATION 18

With the current ﬁrmware only manual conﬁguration is supported. Automatic conﬁguration using DHCP is

not supported.

Connectivity Monitor settings are used when WAN redundancy functionality is wanted. Monitor keeps checking

the connection to given remote host to determine the network status. If the ping does not get an answer for given

time window, it informs the WAN switch logic to try the secondary interface.

If the WAN redundancy is implemented by using two separated Ethernet connections with diﬀerent gate-

ways, the Backup Gateway parameter needs to be conﬁgured towards correct backup gateway. Backup Gateway

parameter is not needed if WAN redundancy is implemented with wireless connection.

See section 4.1.4 for more details about WAN redundancy.
