Configuring WAN Failover Priority
Failover mode regulates which WAN is used for the Internet connection and switches the WAN if a connectivity
failure is detected.
Failover mode enables the WAN with the highest priority as displayed on the WAN Configuration page. If the WAN
with priority 1 is disabled or a connection failure is detected, the WAN with priority 2 is automatically selected for
establishing connection to the Internet.
If Ethernet is used as WAN, the DHCP server must be disabled.
1.
Click Setup > WAN Configuration.
2.
Under Options, click the up and down arrows to change the priority of the appropriate WAN.
3.
Click Save and Restart to save the change.

The device can use the active or passive mode to monitor the Internet availability in WAN. The default condition is
active mode.
Active mode can be type ICMP (ping) or TCP. ICMP periodically pings the designated host at the specified interval.
TCP tries to make a connection to the designated host at the interval specified.
For both ICMP and TCP, if a response is not received, the device switches to the WAN with lower priority. The
device continues to ping the designated host at the interval specified for WAN with the higher priority and
switches back when the ping is successful. When passive mode is enabled, the device switches the WANs when the
network interface is down. The currently active WAN is displayed on the home page under the label WAN
Transport.
To edit failover configuration:
