Round-Robin: Evenly distribute each session to the available WAN connections.
Rate: Distribute load based on the current upload and download rates. A WAN device's upload and download bandwidth values can be set in the Connection Manager page.
Spillover: The default algorithm. Load is always given to devices with the most available bandwidth. The estimated bandwidth rate is based on a combination of the upload and download configuration values and the observed capabilities of the device.
Data Usage: This mode works in concert with the Data Usage feature. The endpoint will make best effort to keep data usage between interfaces at a similar percentage of the assigned data cap in the Data Usage rule for each interface, rather than distributing sessions based solely on bandwidth.
Note
You must create data usage rules for each WAN device you will be load balancing. See Configuring Data Usage for instructions.
