Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for associating a gateway device as a backup for another gateway device based on the communication characteristics of the gateways. The communication characteristics of the gateways may indicate that the gateways available are suitable backups of each other in the event that one of the gateways becomes inoperable or has an excessive workload. The associations between the gateways may be further based on the network channels used by the gateways for communications.
