DESCRIPTION
This field displays the name of the WAN interface (WAN 1 and WAN 2).
This field is applicable when you select Outbound + Inbound or Inbound Only in
the Load Balancing Index(es) field.
Specify the inbound (or downstream) bandwidth (in kilo bites per second) for the
interface. This should be the actual downstream bandwidth that your ISP provides.
This field is applicable when you select Outbound + Inbound or Outbound Only in
the Load Balancing Index(es) field.
Specify the outbound (or upstream) bandwidth (in kilo bites per second) for the
interface. This should be the actual upstream bandwidth that your ISP provides.
DESCRIPTION
Select Active/Active Mode and set the related fields to enable load balancing on the
ZyWALL.
Set the load balancing method to Weighted Round Robin.
This field displays the name of the WAN interface (WAN 1 and WAN 2).
Specify the weight for the interface. Enter 0 to set the ZyWALL not to send traffic load
to the interface. The higher the number, the bigger the weight (the more traffic sent).
