### Zero Downtime Failover
59+
60+
Zero Downtime Failover automatically sends traffic to origin servers within a pool during transient network issues. This helps reduce errors shown to your users when issues occur in between active health monitors.
61+
62+
You can enable one of three options:
63+
64+
- **None**: No failover will take place and errors may show to your users.
65+
- **Temporary**: Traffic will be sent to other origin(s) until the originally pinned origin is available.
66+
- **Sticky**: The session affinity cookie is updated and subsequent requests are sent to the new origin moving forward as needed.
