Redundancy
5.3 Setup
When configuring redundant Smart Wireless Gateways, it is only necessary to configure one
system. The other Gateway will be configured automatically when it is paired with the first
Gateway.
Choose one Gateway as the starter Gateway. For the purposes of this document, it will be
referred to as Gateway A. The other Gateway will be referred to as Gateway B. To configure
redundancy system settings:
1. Connect a PC/laptop to the Ethernet 1 port on Gateway A.
2. Log in using the admin user account.
3. Navigate to System Settings>Gateway>Redundancy.
4. Gateway A's factory serial number will be assigned to Gateway A.
5. Gateway B's factory serial number will be assigned to Gateway B.
The Gateway names will be used in diagnostic messages and host system integration to help
identity each Gateway. It is recommended that these names be marked on each physical
Gateway, in addition to the configuration settings.
Selecting left or right for Gateway A is for visualization purposes only. It has no effect on
performance or functionality.
Figure 5-1. Redundancy System Settings (Setup>Redundancy)
After the redundancy system settings have been configured, the two Gateways must be
connected and undergo a pairing process.
