Hi, the project uses Standard Ignition with cloud-hosted redundancy, where the main server is hosted on one VM and the backup on another. If my Perspective clients are connected to the application via the main server, would they need to update the IP address on their clients during a main server failover, or how would this process work?
Or is the DNS/LB the only option ?
Once you've setup Redundancy, clients are aware of the addresses of both the Master and Backup Ignition Gateways. You can use the public address settings (which can be set accordingly on both gateways) to fine-tune the proper public-facing addresses that clients should use. Make sure you're using HTTPS as well!
