The same WAN connection will be used for traffic matching the rule and originating from

the same machine regardless of its destination. This option will provide the highest level of

application compatibility.

By Destination:

same machine, and going to the same destination. This option can better distribute load to

WAN connections when there are only a few client machines.

The default Mode is By Source.

When there are multiple client requests, they can be distributed (persistently) to WAN connections with a

weight. If you choose Autoin Load Distribution, the weights will be automatically adjusted according to

Section11Configuration of WAN Interface(s)). If you chooseCustom, you can customize the weight of

each WAN manually by using the sliders.
