This article explains the failover.dat file.

Once the agent is created in Authentication Manager, you must then generate the configuration files by navigating to Access > Authentication Agents > Generate Configuration File > Generate Config File > Download Now.
The failover.dat file allows agent auto-registration to complete when the primary instance is unavailable or separated from the agent host by a firewall that uses Network Address Translation (NAT). The file includes a list of the primary and replica instances, and their alias IP addresses.
