I've got a question associated with multi-wan load balancing. I have 2 physical network interface connected to 2 different network. I have configured it with Load Balancing. I monitored that behavior of the Load Balancing and I realized that the fail-over is quite effective. However, I also experience the following, can someone help to verify this is what it is supposed to behave? 1. The failover is effective; however, I could not see the Load Balancing. I used 3 computers to perform download from the Internet, all of them were loaded to the first WAN link instead of loading one or two on the 2nd Internet link. Is the load balancing triggered by certain threshold?
Round robin'd flows. You could have just had some serious bad luck, I'm guessing that you have a rule wrong somewhere though.
2. I performed a download and monitor which Internet link it established through, then I killed this link. I noticed that the download session was then frozen. The failover does not support switch-over of any session, correct? Of course, new session was put onto the "live" Internet link without any issue.
Right, not possible (unless you can run a routing protocol at the edge). In-flight connections will always be dropped on failover due to NAT and TCP states. --Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
