DESCRIPTION
If you are adding a new entry, select the interface that you want to configure this rule for.
The list shows the interfaces that have not configured multi-WAN rules. If no interface is
shown in the list, this means all interfaces already have existing rules. You must delete an
old rule before adding a new one.
Select whether you want to configure the rule as Active or Passive. If you choose Active,
the SBG3500-N always attempt to use this connection. If you choose Passive, the
SBG3500-N only use this connection when all of the connections set to active are down. You
can only set one interface to passive mode.
Note: The mode of the 3G interface is locked to passive and cannot be changed to active. To
set another interface to passive mode, the 3G interface must be deleted first.
If you choose Active in the Mode field, specify the weight (1~10) for the interface. The
weights of the different member interfaces form a ratio. This ratio determines how much
traffic the SBG3500-N sends through each member interface. The higher an interface's
weight is (relative to the weights of the interfaces), the more traffic the SBG3500-N sends
through that interface.
