5.  Ethernet-B Static Routes

 – Set a host route to the remote IP-6600’s Ethernet-B interface.

For our example, this would be an entry of Target: 10.225.0.8, Netmask: 255.255.255.255,
Gateway: 10.225.0.8, Failover: No.  This routing entry is unnecessary because the routers
are directly connected.  However, it has been included to illustrate setting a host route, which
would be necessary if the routers were not directly connected.

6.  Serial-A Operating Mode

 – Leave all of these settings in their default state including the

disabled Port Mode.

7.  Serial-A PPP Options

 –From the default configuration set the local IP address to

192.168.0.1 and the remote IP address to 192.168.0.2

8.  Serial-A Static Routes

 – Set a default route to the remote router.  This would be an entry of

Target: 0.0.0.0, Netmask: 0.0.0.0, Failover: Yes.  Notice that this is a failover route.  Its
counterpart was set back on step 4.

The local IP6600 is configured.  Don’t forget to activate and save your changes.

Remote IP-6600

1.  Ethernet-A IP Configuration

 – Set the IP address and Subnet Mask for your remote

network.  In our example, this would be IP:10.0.2.2,  Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0.

2.  Tools/ISP-Failover

 - Enable failover and select the ping method.  Set Ethernet-B as the

primary interface and Serial-A as the failover interface.  Set both the Failover-Time and
Recovery-Time to 10 seconds.  Set the Ping Target.  This will be the IP address of the local
IP-6600’s Ethernet-B interface.  For our example, this would be 10.225.0.7. Enable the Block
Default Route field.

3.  Ethernet-B IP Configuration

 – Set the IP address and Subnet Mask for your primary

connection.  In our example, this would be IP: 10.225.0.8, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0.

4.  Ethernet-B Static Routes

 – Set a default route to the local router.  For our example, this

would be an entry of Target: 0.0.0.0, Netmask: 0.0.0.0, Gateway: 10.225.0.7, Failover: Yes.
Notice that this is a failover route.
