Automated Internet Failover

gateway

Q. Do you want your internet connection to automatically failover?

Q. Would do like to share bandwidth on two or more internet connections?

Answer: GNATBox has this kind of functionality built in. In the screen shot above you can see options as follows:

Gateway Failover
Default route will automatically fail over the whole gateway to the DR link if the primary goes down.

Gateway Sharing
Data will be shared out equally over two or more internet links.

Policy Based Routing
You can make rules on which kind of traffic goes out which link; like SMTP or HTTP through different links for example.

Source Routing
You can chose to route traffic out a link based on which IP address it comes from.

If you would like to set this up let us know - no extra licensing is required.
