==Failover==

The <b>Failover</b> function allows you to backup your primary WAN connection in case it goes down.

In order to set priorities, simply press left mouse click on the interface, then drag it to the 1st, 2nd or other position and then press Save & Apply.

You can drag & drop an interface in order to change its position on the list. Interfaces that are higher on the list have a higher priority than the ones that are lower, i.e., the device will always use the WAN interface with the highest priority as long as it is available. If it goes down, the device will start using the interface with the second highest priority and so on.

A failover <b>Interface Configuration</b> page is used to configure how the device will determine whether an interface is online or offline. To enter an interface configuration page, click the 'Edit' button next to an interface.

===Load Balancing===

==Load Balancing==

 

<b>Load Balancing</b> is a method of dividing traffic between multiple WAN interfaces. Load Balancing can be used to share the data load between different interfaces and increase the overall Internet speed for multiple users and connections. It is important to note that <u>Load Balancing does not increase speed for any single connection</u>. For example, if you're downloading a large file, using Load Balancing will not increase the speed of that download.

For example, if you're downloading a large file, using Load Balancing will not increase the speed of that download.

then about 60 % (3/5) of traffic would go through the Wired WAN interface and about 40 % (2/5) would go through {{{wan2}}}. In this case if you played 100 different videos on the Internet, about 60 would be downloaded through Wired WAN and the other 40 would be downloaded via {{{wan2}}}.

===Rules===

==Rules==

 

A Load Balancing/Failover <b>Rule</b> is a set of conditions that define some type of network traffic. The traffic that matches the conditions set in the rule is handled in accordance to the specified <b>Policy</b>.
