Tracking Network Failover

Before you track the status of the failover of a device you must trigger the failover for that device. To trigger the failover, navigate to the section Network :: Failover :: Connections. For more information, see the section Configuring Network Failover. You can track the status of the failover history of devices by navigating to Tracking:: Network :: Failover. 

This page includes the following options:

• History: The history section provides a detailed view of events within a specified time interval, including failover, failback, and failover disabled events. This data is visually presented in a chart, with dates and the connection statuses displayed. 
• Date intervals: By default, the page opens with a one-month interval, which can be adjusted using the start and end date fields. You can filter historical data by specific date intervals using the search fields, allowing for targeted analysis of past events. This historical data is visually represented in a chart for an intuitive overview. 
• Status table: The status table displays the current connection status, reasons for failovers, and event counters, providing real-time insights into network performance and issues. 
• Show History Table: You can choose to view this data in a tabular format by enabling the Show History Table checkbox, offering flexibility in how information is presented and analyzed.
• Reset Counters: At the bottom of the chart, counters for failover and failback events within the selected interval are displayed. Clicking on Reset Counters resets the Failover counter and displays the last reset timestamp adjacent to it.

When Network Failover is disabled, the status table is absent. Only the historical data is displayed.

 When hovering over a connection interval, additional information is revealed, such as the event type, order number (indicating the sequence of failover active connection), to connection, from connection, reason, start date, and end date.
