Host Configuration

Your RediGate 400 can connect to multiple host systems over a variety of communications paths including cellular, Ethernet, and/or external satellite. The instructions below demonstrate how to edit your configuration for connectivity to your host system.

Info
titleChoosing between Cellular and Ethernet Connectivity
By default, the RediGate uses the first default gateway it can find to connect to an outside network. If your Ethernet port is setup with a default gateway to where the host server is located, the RediGate will by default use the Ethernet port to connect .If you would like the RediGate to use the cellular connection by default, you will need to set the "default gateway" parameter on the Ethernet port to 0.0.0.0.

 

Image ModifiedEthernet ports that are setup for DHCP (0.0.0.0 for IP, Subnet, and Gateway) will always use the default gateway they are assigned by the router, and thus without custom configuration using routing tables, you cannot program the RediGate to use the cellular connection if the default gateway provided by the DHCP connection has a path to the host server.
