# Configuration

All configuration is done in /etc/config/wanmonitor file. Options available:

@ -8,4 +10,36 @@ All configuration is done in /etc/config/wanmonitor file. Options available:
|
|||
* wan_primary - Primary WAN interface name to use
|
||||
* wan_secondary - Secondary WAN interface name to use
|
||||
|
||||
In order to work this software correctly it is recommended to disable default routes on all WAN interfaces.
|
||||
What is more it can make a use of WAN routes metrics set in /etc/config/network,
|
||||
thus allowing to use PPPoE to work correctly. When PPPoE connection is established,
|
||||
it automatically adds a route with proper (higher) priority and this connection
|
||||
is being used as default. After a while, when WanMonitor notices primary connection
|
||||
is again available, it removes a route for secondary WAN connection (eg. in order to
|
||||
save mobile traffic).
