Currently there is no option to set a custom target for ping/DNS for Omada-controlled gateways, but it is possible in standalone mode.

 

Please add the same option as in standalone-mode so that users can configure a more reliable ping-target.

 

This custom-target should also support IPv6 addresses (so when only IPv6 fails, Link-backup can failover to the other WAN-pass-through)

Dear  @RobertMEF 

 

In Controller mode, you may set the online detection method under Devices -> Router's Config -> Advanced  -> Echo Server.

 

Select Custom, then enter the IP address for Ping or enter the domain address for DNS lookup.

 

 

For IPv6 feedback, I've reported to the developer team for evaluation

  @Hank21 

 

Thanks for pointing that one out. so thats an UX/UI problem, please change the feature request as follows:

 

this configuration should be part of the link-backup configuration or at least for a temporary solution there should be a link/info on the config page for link-backup

 

there is still the DNS resolver test missing, is there a way to add that again?
