Integrate AWS Fargate with 2 activegate

I'm integrating my app's monitoring with Dynatrace into AWF Fargate. The integration is done via the runtime, and I'm routing the agent download to the ActiveGate on an EC2 instance. For best practices, the client wants to implement two ActiveGates. How does the installer know when one of these instances fails? Is any additional configuration required? In the Command section, Docker configuration, for example, DT_API_URL, I understand that I need to declare the second ActiveGate.

My suggestion is to configure a single DNS name in front of two (or more) ActiveGates, e.g., an AWS Network Load Balancer (TCP passthrough on 9999) pointing to your two EC2 ActiveGates.

Thank Paco. We also manage our own certificates. Would I need to manage a certificate for my load balancer and integrate it with the ActiveGates? Or is there another way to do it during integration, such as declaring the second IP address of the ActiveGate if there's no response from the first one?
