A redundant service delivery gateway system and method. Configuration information defining roles for redundant service delivery gateways is received via a user interface defined for each of a plurality of redundant service delivery gateways. Configuration information defining one or more redundancy events, a redundancy policy associated with each redundancy event and two or more redundancy sets is also received via a user interface. Each redundancy set is associated with one or more of the redundancy events and each redundancy set includes a master redundancy state and a standby redundancy state. A first redundancy event detected in a first service delivery gateway leads to a transition, in the first service delivery gateway, from a master redundancy state to a standby redundancy state in the redundancy set associated with the first redundancy event.
