Mode - Cisco RV042, RV042G, and RV082
You can configure up to two Internet connections by using the Internet port and the
DMZ/Internet port. You can choose one of the following modes to manage your
WAN connections:
• Smart Link Backup: Choose this mode to ensure continuous connectivity. If
the primary WAN connection is unavailable, the backup WAN connection is
used.
• Load Balance: Choose this mode to use both Internet connections
simultaneously to increase the available bandwidth. The router balances the
traffic between the two interfaces in a weighted round robin fashion.
NOTE: DNS queries are not subject to load balancing.
