Backup7

For maximum availability, the Backup7 service offers a failover solution for Fiber7 Business. If the primary internet connection fails, Backup7 ensures that connectivity remains seamless.

How it works:

A permanent VPN tunnel automatically establishes a secure connection via a secondary internet access point in the event of a fault. This secondary Internet connection can be obtained from any provider (e.g. cable, DSL, 5G, satellite). The switchover takes place within a few seconds using the VRRP protocol (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol). The public IPv4/IPv6 addresses are rerouted to the alternative path. This ensures that operation and accessibility are maintained A dedicated Backup7 router is provided for the service. Both Internet connections are continuously monitored and any faults are detected. Switching to the secondary connection and back is fully automatic.

Backup7 Overview

  • Automatic failover of the Internet Default Gateway (VRRP)
  • Retention of public IP addresses (IPv4 & IPv6)
  • Encrypted tunnel (WireGuard) for secure data traffic via the secondary internet connection
  • Compatible with a standard Internet connection from a third-party provider (e.g. xDSL, cable, 5G) without any special requirements (CGNAT is supported). This Internet connection is not included in the service
  • Backup7 router included, configured as backup default gateway
  • Backup7 requires two additional IP addresses (IPv4/IPv6) from the customer network for VRRP configuration. The usual MTU size is guaranteed by means of the EoIP protocol.
