Multi-WAN
WAN failover provides efficient utilization of multiple WAN interfaces. Based on the configuration, this
feature can be used to distribute traffic among the interfaces. The Multi-WAN feature provides the outbound
WAN traffic over multiple WAN interfaces (WAN & USB) based on a numeric weight assignment. It also
monitors each WAN connection using repeated ping tests and automatically routes outbound traffic to another
WAN interface if connectivity is lost. The specific outbound traffic rules can also be configured because of
