Tunnel Routing Load Balancing & Fault Tolerance
Note that every tunnel group must contain at least one tunnel which is configured with one static public
IP address
In this table, tunnels are configured for a tunnel group with IP addresses of WAN links of local and remote FortiWAN
units and the routing algorithm used to rout packets over tunnels.
Add : Click the Add button to add a new Tunnel Group setting panel.
Group Name : Assign a group name to the tunnel group.
Remote Host ID : Enter the Host ID of the Remote unit the Tunnel Group connects to.
Algorithm :
l Round-Robin: Route the connections in every tunnel by weight. Note: Please
specify the weight value of “Group Tunnels” when selecting “Round-Robin” (See
"Load Balancing & Fault Tolerance").
l By Upstream Traffic: Route the connections to the tunnel with the lightest
upstream traffic flow (See "Load Balancing & Fault Tolerance").
