14.3 Load Balancing
14.3.1 Load Balancing Groups
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 controlled distribution of data traffic within a particular group of interfaces 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

cing
->
Load Balancing Groups
menu. Clicking the magnifier icon opens an overview of
basic parameters pertaining to this group.
Note
Note that all interfaces collected under a Load Balancing Group must have routes with
identical metrics. If applicable, go to
Networking
->
Routes
and verify the relevant
entries.
