Back to The Gateway

Rollback and recovery

Risky network changes need a known-good path back.

The Gateway release readiness requires rollback notes before applying routing, DNS, firewall, fallback, or remote access changes.

Before apply
  • Record admin access, DNS, route, firewall, fallback, backup, and out-of-band recovery state.
  • Confirm what change is safe to roll back without losing operator access.
During recovery
  • Stop new changes, restore firewall/DNS/routes, verify local connectivity, then verify management access.
  • Run route and DNS checks before declaring recovery complete.
After recovery
  • Document the failed change, observed behavior, evidence, remaining risk, and next safe attempt.
  • Keep public reports redacted.

Next action

Attach rollback evidence to install readiness.

Public install claims should wait until recovery behavior is documented for the target deployment mode.
