Abstract: Systems, software, and methods are provided to rapidly configured replacement gateways and other devices when needed. Configuration information may be received and stored in memory. The information may be sent to a first device or gateway. If the first device or gateway needs to be reconfigured, the information may be resent to the first device or gateway. If the first device or gateway fails, the information may be send to a second device or gateway to configure the second device for use in the system, thereby rapidly swapping the first device and second device.
