Parameter Description
General
Index
[IPGroupSet_Index]
Defines an index number for the new table row.
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique index.
Name
name
[IPGroupSet_Name]
Defines a descriptive name, which is used when associating the row in
other tables.
The valid value is a string of up to 40 characters. By default, no name is
defined. If you don't configure a name, the device automatically assigns
a name in the following format: "IPGroupSet_<index>". For example, if
you add a new row to Index 0, the following name is assigned:
"IPGroupSet_0"
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique name.
Policy
policy
[IPGroupSet_Policy]
Defines the load-balancing policy.
 [0] Round-Robin = (Default) The device selects the next consecutive,
available IP Group for each call. The device selects the first IP Group
in the table (i.e., lowest index) for the first call and the next
consecutive IP Groups for the next calls. For example, first call to IP
Group at Index 0, second call to IP Group at Index 2, third call to IP
Group at Index 3, and so on. If an IP Group is offline, the device
selects the next consecutive IP Group. Once the last IP Group in the
IP Group Set list is selected for a call, the device goes to the
beginning of the list and sends the next call to the first IP Group, and
so on.
 [1] Random Weight = The device selects IP Groups at random and
their weights determine their probability of getting chosen over others.
The higher the weight, the more chance of the IP Group being
chosen.
 [2] Homing = The device always attempts to send all calls to the first
IP Group in the table (i.e., lowest index). If unavailable, it sends the
calls to the next consecutive, available IP Group. However, if the first
IP Group comes online again, the device selects it.
Note: For the Random Weight optional value, use the 'Weight'
