6.3 Connection Failover

63

Warning

Connection failover is relevant only if performed by a persistent connection (i.e. the primary

connection uses a network card or a persistently connected dial-up). Failing that, the sec-

ondary connection would be activated upon each hang-up of the primary link automatically.

Configuration with the wizard

On the second page of the Traffic Policy Wizard (see chapter

7.1

), select Multiple Internet Links

— Failover.

Figure 6.9

Traffic Policy Wizard — Internet connection failover

In the third step of the wizard, select a network interface for the primary connection (leased

or persistent dial-up link) and for the secondary connection (leased or dial-up link). If login

data for the selected telephone connections are not saved in the operating system, enter the

valid username and password.

In the Software Appliance / VMware Virtual Appliance edition, the wizard allows:

to configure parameters of the selected primary and secondary interface,

to create a new primary or/and secondary interface (PPPoE, PPTP or dial-up).

For details on network interfaces, see chapter

5
