12.3 Load Balancing
The increasing amount of data traffic over the Internet means it is necessary to send data
over different interfaces to increase the total bandwidth available. IP load balancing en-
ables the distribution of data traffic within a certain group of interfaces to be controlled.
12.3.1 Load Balancing Groups
If interfaces are combined to form groups, the data traffic within a group is divided accord-
ing to the following principles:
• In contrast to Multilink PPP-based solutions, load balancing also functions with accounts
with different providers.
• Session-based load balancing is achieved.
• Related (dependent) sessions are always routed over the same interface.
• A decision on distribution is only made for outgoing sessions.
A list of all configured load balancing groups is displayed in the Networking->Load Balan-
cing->Load Balancing Groups menu. You can click the
icon next to any list entry to
go to an overview of the basic parameters that affect this group.
