When the FortiGate unit attempts to
connect, it tries both modems, and the
first one to connect becomes the
primary account connection.
fallback - the first account in the list
is the primary connection account. The
second account is a redundant account
that takes over when the primary
account drops its connection or fails.
As soon as the primary connection is
restored, the secondary connection
disconnects.
