Multi-WAN Method

Hamraz

Hi,

Currently my customer has Internet connection with ISP X at 1GB download and 30GB upload. They are going to purchase an additional incoming connection from same ISP to make the connection dual.
Also They will purchase another incoming connection from another ISP (Y) as a failover option.
So I'm looking for the best multi-WAN methods between them. Does anyone have any suggestion? Based on what I know I can only chose one method between all external connection, right? Is there any way to use Round-robin between X connections as a primary and then set failover with Connection Y?
The Firebox model is M270.

Thanks,

Hi @Hamraz
Most customers will use Failover or round robin. What you use depends on what you intend on using the connection for.

Some connections, like load balancing web traffic, work fine with round robin, while things like VoIP will not tolerate that.

You can use SD-WAN actions to override that global selection per-policy. You can read more about SD-WAN here:
