Configure the WAN Mode
The UTM9S in which an xDSL module is installed supports both Ethernet WAN interfaces
and an xDSL WAN interface. For information about how to configure the WAN interfaces, see
Chapter 3, Manually Configuring Internet and WAN Settings.
If you have configured a WAN interface in addition to the DSL interface, the UTM9S can be
configured on a mutually exclusive basis for either auto-rollover (for increased system
reliability) or load balancing (for maximum bandwidth efficiency). If you do not select load
balancing, you need to specify the DSL interface or one WAN interface as the primary
interface.
• Load balancing mode. The UTM9S distributes the outbound traffic equally among the
DSL and WAN interfaces that are functional. The UTM9S supports weighted load
balancing and round-robin load balancing (see Configure Load Balancing and Optional
Protocol Binding on page 517).
Note: Scenarios could arise when load balancing needs to be bypassed
for certain traffic or applications. If certain traffic needs to travel on
the DSL interface or a specific WAN interface, configure protocol
binding rules for that interface. The rule should match the desired
traffic.
• Primary WAN mode. The DSL interface (or a WAN interface) is made the primary
interface. The other interfaces are disabled.
• Auto-rollover mode. The selected DSL or WAN interface is defined as the primary link,
and another interface needs to be defined as the rollover link. Because there are three
