Configuring a Node’s Paths
The WANrockIT 200 will always attempt to get the best performance possible for the data it is
transferring. Once a link has been established between two Nodes, they will automatically check
for other available connections to each other through their WAN ports. Any available connections
that are found will be set as ‘failover’ paths and will not be used unless the ‘primary’ path fails.
To change the link settings between two Nodes, click on the Configure Node button, and a popup
box will appear as shown:
Setting Primary and Failover Paths
A path is a link between two IP addresses when you establish a link between two WANrockIT Nodes.
This link is set as the ‘primary’ path and is the default connection used by the Nodes.
Once this ‘primary’ path is established, the Nodes will then automatically check for other available
connections to each other through their WAN ports. Any possible connections that are found will
automatically be set as ‘failover’ paths. A failover path will not be used unless the primary path fails.
You can also select a Primary Failover path which will be the first one that is used in the event of a
failure with the primary path. To choose a Primary Failover path, select the path that you wish to
use from the
Failover Target/ID drop down box on the far right of the path table.
