The system supports IPv4 and IPv6 multi-link load balancing. IPv4 multi-link load balancing is enabled by default, while IPv6 multi-link load balancing needs tobe enabled manually. 1. Configuring IPv4 Multi-Link Balancing
(1)Select a load balancing modefrom the Load Mode drop-down list.
(2) Select a loading balancing policyfrom the Load Balancing Policy drop-downlist. Table 1-1 Description of Load Balancing Policies (IPv4)
Load Balancing Policy
Description
Based on Connections
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the links. Packets with the same source IP address, destination IP address, source port, destination port, and protocol are routed over the same link.
Based on Src IP Address
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the source IP address. The traffic from the same user (same source IP address) will be routed to the same interface. This policy prevents traffic from the same user from being routed to different links, lowering the risks of network access exceptions.
Based on Src and Dest IP Address
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the source IP address and destination. The traffic of the same source IP address and destination IP address will be routed to the same interface.
Smart Load Balancing
After you enable this feature, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the link bandwidth, the actual loads of the links, application recognition and traffic prediction.
(3) Set the uplink and downlink bandwidths or the weight for each WAN port.
When the load balancing policyis set to Based on Connections, Based on Src IP Address, or Based on Src and Dest IP Address, aweight must be set for each WAN port.
Note
The higher the value of the weight, the moretraffic is directed to the WAN port.
When the load balancing policyis set to Smart Load Balancing, theuplink and downlink bandwidths must be set for each WAN port.
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the links. Packets with the same source IP address, destination IP address, source port, destination port, and protocol are routed over the same link.
Based on Src IP
Address
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the source IP address. The traffic from the same user (same source IP address) will be routed to the same interface. This policy prevents traffic from the same user from being routed to different links, lowering the risks of network access exceptions.
Based on Src and Dest
IP Address
After you enable this policy, the traffic is routed over multiple links based on the source IP address and destination. The traffic of the same source IP address and destination IP address will be routed to the same interface.
(1) Toggle on Enable toenable the IPv6 multi-link load balancing mode.
(2) Select a load balancing mode from the Load Mode drop-down list.
(3) Select a loading balancing policy from the Load Balancing Policy drop-down list.
(4) Set a weight for each WAN port.
The validrange of weight is 1 to 100000. Note：
The higher the value of the weight, the moretraffic is directed to the WAN port.
