Description
Check this box to enable HA function.
Choose Hot-Standby or Active-Standby as the method for HA.
Hot –Standby –Hot-Standby is a redundant method of having
several secondary service nodes running standby with another
identical primary service node. Upon failure of the primary
node, the system immediately elects one from all secondary
nodes to replace the failure one and take over the service.
While in the standby status, the secondary nodes are still
mirrored the configuration of primary in real time, thus the
whole systems are assured of having identical configuration.
Active-Standby –Active-Standby is a redundant method of
having the access points configured independently by
participating in HA session with individual LAN interface. As
an active gateway LAN, it routes user's traffic while others stay
in standby status.
Config Synchronization Role(Hot-Standby) – Specify the
role for such Vigor router.
Primary – It means such Vigor router is treated as the primary
device (master device).
Authentication Key – Type a string as the authentication key.
