Option M - Configure Replacement of Redundant Gateway
A unique capability of the gateway is the ability to configure one for redundant operation. The redundant gateway can be on “hot
stand-by” for a remote switchover, or on “warm stand-by” where the network cable needs to be moved from the primary to the
stand-by unit. The configuration for redundancy is also the same as configuring for replacement in the unlikely event a gateway
fails or is damaged. A redundant or replacement gateway can be configured in just a few minutes.
Note – the descriptions below only show how to configure the gateway for the wireless network parameters and wireless sensors.
The wired network parameters need to be configured through the “Remote User Interface” software utility from FieldServer
Technologies. Wired configuration parameters are recommended as follows:
Note – When using warm stand-by mode both gateways should not be connected to the wired network at the same time. There are
multiple actions that can be performed under Option
M
