9.2 Misc. Settings 9.2.1 High Availability The Peplink Balance supports high availability (HA) configurations via an open standard virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP, RFC 3768). In an HA configuration, two same-model Peplink Balance units provide redundancy and failover in a master-slave arrangement. In the event that the master unit is down, the slave unit becomes active. High availability will be disabled automatically where there is a drop-in connection configured on a LAN bypass port.
Interface for Master Router Interface for Slave Router High Availability Enable Checking this box specifies that the Peplink Balance unit is part of a high availability configuration. Group Number This number identifies a pair of Peplink Balance units operating in a high availability configuration. The two Peplink Balance units in the pair must have the same Group Number value. Preferred Role This setting specifies whether the Peplink Balance unit operates in master or slave mode.
Important Note For Balance routers in NAT mode, the virtual IP (VIP) should be set as the default gateway for all hosts sitting on the LAN segment. For example, a firewall sitting behind the Balance should set its default gateway as the virtual IP instead of the IP of the master Balance. In drop-in mode, no other configuration needs to be set. https://www.peplink.
Please note that the drop-in WAN cannot be configured as a LAN bypass port while it is configured for high availability. 9.2.2 Certificate Manager This section allows you to assign certificates for the local VPN, OpenVPN, Captive Portal, Mediafast, Contenthub, Wi-Fi WAN (Client and CA) and web admin SSL for extra security.
