A Record Editing
Host Name
This field specifies the A record of this sub-domain to be served by the
PePLink Balance.
TTL
This setting specifies the time to live of this record in external DNS
caches.
In order to reflect any dynamic changes on the IP addresses in case of
link failure and recovery, this value should be set to a smaller value.
E.g. 5 secs, 60 secs, etc.
IP Mapping
This setting specifies lists of WAN-specific Internet IP addresses that
are candidates to be returned when PePLink Balance responds to DNS
queries for the domain name specified by Host Name.
The IP addresses listed in each box as
Default
are the Internet IP
addresses associated with each of the WAN connections.
For WAN connections that operate under Drop-in mode, there may be
other routable IP addresses in addition to the
Default
IP address.
Therefore, PePLink Balance allows custom Internet IP addresses to be
added manually via filling the text box on the right-hand side and
clicking the Left Arrow button.
Only the highlighted IP addresses in the lists are candidates to be
returned when responding to a DNS query. (Multiple items in a list
can be selected by holding CTRL and clicking on the items.)
In case of a WAN connection is down, the corresponding set of IP
addresses will not be returned. However, the IP addresses in the
Custom IP field will always be returned.
