I have used an edge gateway as a fallback to a full Ignition gateway before. However, I’m curious if you can set up an edge gateway as a fallback to another edge gateway. TIA

Assuming Vision from past context, yes. Vision's local client fallback is extremely simple - the gateway opens a specific local port, and a running Vision client knows to check if that port is open when the connection to its primary gateway fails. It doesn't care the source as long as it's a valid gateway.
