2 WAN load balance (multiwan)
-
Hi guys.
Is it possible to load balance 2 WAN so that 2nd WAN is used ONLY if the (download)bandwidth of WAN1 is fully populated?
Tried with the gateway weight setting but it only affects round robin-ing and can not be used in this way.
Using 2.0RC1 saturday build (12.03.2011)
EDIT: I am talking about multiwan. It's my home network and redundancy and failover are not so important. I just want to use my WAN 1 until it is maxed out and than just add WAN2's bandwidth.
(this normaly ony happnes when dloading torrent files. Otherwise WAN1 is more than enough for everything else)BR

No, that isn't a scenario that the system can accommodate. You can either do load balancing, where the connections are balanced in a round-robin way between the lines, or you can do failover, but you can't have a second WAN kick in only when the first reaches a given capacity.

Ok.
Thank you for the info!
