Dual WAN – Outbound Load Balance

Outbound Load Balance

The connections are distributed over WAN1 and WAN2 so that it can utilize bandwidth of both WAN
ports. With Outbound load balance, traffic may be routed to a faster link when one of the WAN links is
slower or congested so that user gains better throughput and less delay.
User can distribute outbound traffic based on Session Mechanism or IP Hash Mechanism.
Base on Session Mechanism:
Balance by Session (Round Robin): Automatically assign requests/traffics to each WAN interface
based on real-time WAN traffic-handling capacity.
OR
Balance by Session weight: Manually Balance session traffic based on a weight ratio.
Example: Session weight by 3:1 meaning forward 3 requests to WAN1 and 1 request to WAN2.
Base on IP Hash Mechanism:
Balance by weight: Use an IP hash to balance traffic based on a ratio. It is to guarantee requests
from the same IP address get forward to the same WAN interface.
