Internet failover

Give critical systems another way to connect.

Caboodle plans backup connectivity around the applications that matter during an outage. We review the primary connection, select an eligible secondary path, and test the agreed switching behavior so the fallback is documented before it is needed.

What's included

Prepare the backup for a real interruption.

The final scope names the deliverables, dependencies, and review points before work begins. The work below provides the starting point for that discussion.
  • Critical-system review. Identify the calling, payment, cloud, and other services that need connectivity during an outage.
  • Primary-path assessment. Document the current provider, equipment, physical dependencies, and known interruption risks.
  • Backup-service selection. Compare eligible secondary services and consider how independent they are from the primary connection.
  • Equipment review. Confirm that the router, firewall, and power arrangements support the agreed failover approach.
  • Routing configuration. Configure supported health checks, switching rules, traffic priorities, and recovery behavior.
  • Capacity planning. Decide which applications can use the backup and which should be limited during an outage.
  • Outage simulation. Run an agreed interruption test and inspect connectivity, application behavior, and return to the primary path.
  • Runbook and alerts. Document the test results, support contacts, monitoring arrangement, and manual recovery steps.
How this works

Four steps from the first review to handoff.

Phase 1

Define what must stay connected

Prioritize applications and identify the connection and power dependencies that affect them.
Phase 2

Design the backup path

Choose the secondary service and confirm the equipment and switching approach.
Phase 3

Configure and test

Set the routing rules and simulate an outage under an approved test plan.
Phase 4

Document and review

Hand over the recovery runbook and agree on periodic checks of the backup service.
