Configuring SD-WAN load balancing

  1. Go to Network > SD-WAN Rules and edit the rule named sd-wan.
  2. In the Load Balancing Algorithm field, select Volume, and prioritize WAN1 to serve more traffic.

    In the example, the ISP connected to WAN1 is a 40Mb link, and the ISP connected to WAN2 is a 10Mb link, so we balance the weight 75% to 25% in favor of WAN1.
