Description
The number displayed for each status value indicates the priority of
that status. Failover uses this value to select the interface for the
default gateway. Status priority 1 is the most suitable for use, with
lower priorities considered suitable if there are no interfaces at the
highest priority.
The interface list is maintained in the interface priority order
configured in the Network Failover settings. When any interface
changes status, the interface list is examined for the interface that
has the highest status priority, nearest the start of the list. The
highest priority interface with a Responding status becomes the
default gateway. If there is no interface marked as Responding then
the highest Up interface becomes the default gateway.
Gateway: The gateway IP address associated with the interface, or
0.0.0.0 if the interface does not have an associated gateway. An
interface with no gateway is not suitable for use as the default
gateway.
State: The Network Failover enabled state (On or Off) for this
interface. The On state means failover is monitoring this interface,
and the Off state means failover is not using this interface for failover
purposes.
Tests: The number of Link Tests (0, 1 or 2) that are configured for this
interface.
