[FortiOS 6.0] SDWAN - Best way to balance traffic with links with different bandwidth

Hello,

I have several units where I have SDwan configured, mostly the bandwidth of the links are different, for example the WAN link 1 has 100 MB and the WAN link 2 has 30 MB.

Today I use the volume-ratio, but it leaves me in doubt, if it works with a percentage or why it accepts a value up to 255.

Hi Team,

 

 

Based on the number you give in implicit SD WAN rule it will calculate percentage. Lets say if for one wan link you gave 255 and other wan link it is 30
30 is ~11% of 255.

This number is just there to calculate percentages.

For your reference, please see the below screenshots:
