3.4 Other WAN Traffic Settings
It is a good idea to have two Internet feeds to the system, especial from two different ISP; it adds the
service reliability to your clients by turning on WAN-Failover feature. When one feed is out-of-service,
the other feed automatically picks up the responsibly of serving the clients under the feed that goes
outage.
By default, the system assumes there is only one feed to WAN1. All the Policies by default route all
clients' internet traffic via WAN1, using the Internet pipe at WAN1. When you have two pipes, you
certainly want to set some Policies to utilize the bandwidth of the second pipe at WAN2, rather then just
when the WAN1 pipe fails.
Beside the static load balancing by setting "Policy" route, alternatively, you can use the system's
dynamic Load-Balancing feature. When the feature is turned on, the system can distribute the load of
the up-going traffics to the two WAN pipes, according to the weight percentage assigned by the
administrator.
