Cradlepoint CBA750 5.2 Failover

CRADLEPOINT CBA750| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 1.9.0

The CBA750 can e stablish an uplink via any modems plugged into the USB or ExpressCard ports. Although all of these

devices may be plugged in, only one of them may establish a link at a time. If the WAN connection fails the route r will

automatically attempt to bring up a n ew link on another device. This feature is called failover . You can also manually

disconnect and re-connect specific ports using icons in the Control column. T he priority table can be saved permanently

via the Save button. Priority changes take effect immediately even if they are not saved.

5.2.1 WAN Interfaces

This section allows you to:

 Change th e failover order of devices

(aka interfaces)

 Monitor their status

 Take the active link down

 Bring a link up on another device

The device at the top of the list has the highest

priority. This is the device that the router will

attempt to start when it boots up. If the link

cannot be brought up on this device, or if it fails

after boot-up, the router will attempt to bring the

link up on the next available device. Whenever a

link fails on a device, the router will always move

down to the next device down in the list, and wrap around again to the top.
