Appendix D: Configuring Local Management Port as a Fail-Over Port
The QWL4.1 Gateway has two Ethernet ports: Cloud Ethernet 1 and Local Ethernet 2. By default, Cloud Ethernet 1 is used
to connect the QWL4.1 to the Ethernet, and Local Ethernet 2 is configured as a local management port; however, Local
Ethernet 2 can be configured as a fail-over Ethernet port in the event of an Internet interruption on Cloud Ethernet 1.
IMPORTANT:
Configuring Local Ethernet 2 as a failover Ethernet port means you will
be unable to locally access the device's internal Gateway for service!
If you wish to revert Local Ethernet 2 back to a service port, you must contact TCS
There are two methods you can use to reconfigure Local Ethernet 2:
1. Via the internal Gateway by connecting a laptop directly to the QWL4.1 (See
page
17).
2. Via the Command Line Interface (CLI) by connecting a keyboard and monitor to the device (See
and Keyboard on page
Hardware/Internet Requirements
You must provide a secondary Internet connection that is separate from the primary connection (Central Server Location).
This failover server connection can be connected to a wired internet connection or it can utilize a cellular modem.
Fail-Over Port Configuration Via Internal Gateway
1. Connect a laptop running Windows 10 or later directly to the QWL4.1 using a standard RJ-45 Ethernet cable
running from the laptop's Ethernet port to Local Ethernet 2 on the back of the device (see
Communication Connections on page
2. Configure the laptop's Ethernet settings and establish communication with the QWL4.1 as outlined in
Local Management Port on page 17.
3. On your laptop, scroll through the internal Gateway to the Application Options section under Application Information.
Application Options
In the Application Options section, enter the address of the secondary Internet connection in the Failover Server Location
field.
Application information
Click on the "Enable Failover" checkbox. This will open the Failover Options section.
