Scenario 3: No PMP + roaming
In this scenario there is no PMP interface that can be used for a connection. The router
scans the available mobile networks at boot and sorts the networks according to signal
strength.
The network that offers the best signal strength will be the first to connect. Multi-WAN
then controls the failover between the available networks.
Multiwan periodically does a health check on the interface. A health check comprises of a
configurable combination of the following:
•
interface state
•
pings to an ICMP target
•
signal level checks using signal threshold, RSCP threshold and ECIO threshold
option values
A fail for any of the above health checks results in a fail. After a configurable number of
health check failures, Multi-WAN will disconnect the failed interface and attempt to
connect to the next best roaming interface.
