Systems and methods provide network address failover capability within an
application gateway device. In one aspect, a system has a first network
interface and a second network interface. The system receives a set of
configuration data, the configuration data may include a first network
address for the first network interface and a second network address for
the second network interface. At startup or during later operation, the
system may detect the failure of the first network interface. The
configuration data may be analyzed to determine if the first network
address can be used on the second network interface. If so, the first
network address is moved from the first network interface to the second
network interface.
