Figure 73 – Load Balance Strategy - By User Policy 2
The diagrams shown above are examples of user policy. The first diagram illustrates an example of mapping various source IP
subnets to different WAN interfaces. All packets from different subnets will be routed to the assigned WAN interface. The
administrator can manage and balance the loading among available WAN interfaces accordingly.
The second diagram illustrates another example of routing packets with designated destination IPs or domain names to a
certain WAN interface.
If packets do not belong to a user policy rule, the gateway just routes those packets based on the smart weight algorithm.
3.1.4.5 Load Balance Setting
Navigate to Basic Network > WAN & Uplink > Load Balance tab.
The Load Balance function is used to manage and balance bandwidth usage among multiple WAN connections
. The "By
Smart Weight" strategy allows the router to perform load balancing automatically based on the embedded Smart Weight
algorithm. However, when you choose "By Specific Weight" strategy, the further "Weight Definition" configuration window
will let you define the ratio of transferred sessions between all WAN interfaces for data transfer. Lastly, choosing "By User
Policy" strategy displays the "User Policy List" which shows all defined user policy entries and the "User Policy Configuration"
window will let you create and define one user policy for routing dedicated packet flow via one WAN interface.
