Our operators are monitoring a bunch of different HMI projects from Ignition. When our enterprise gateway fails over to the backup, they get redirected properly but have to re-authenticate. Is there a way around this? ---

No, the session cookies that represent the authentication on the gateway side are not synchronized. (I'm not sure they can be when Identity Providers are involved.)
