Auto-rollover using WAN In the Auto-rollover using WAN mode, one of the WAN ports is assigned as the primary Internet link for all the Internet traffic; the secondary WAN port is used for redundancy if the primary link goes down for any reason. Both WAN ports (primary and secondary) must be configured to connect to the respective ISP's before enabling this feature. The secondary WAN port will remain unconnected until a failure is detected on the primary link (either port can be assigned as the primary). If a failure occurs on the primary port, the Internet traffic will roll over to the backup port. When configured in Auto-rollover mode, the link status of the primary WAN port is checked at regular intervals as defined by the failure detection settings. If you want to use Auto-rollover, select Auto-rollover using WAN as the WAN mode and enter the following details.
