Hello Fortinet Community

 

I have an issue with traffic distribution, the traffic is not distributed evenly between my wan interfaces. I came to realize that the weight of member(2) is not 0 so that I can achieve load-balancing between both interfaces.

 

 

AlUla-FW # diagnose sys sdwan member
Member(1): transport-group: 0, interface: port1, flags=0x0 , gateway: 10.0.1.1, source 10.0.1.10, priority: 1 1024, weight: 0
Config volume ratio: 1, last reading: 4357479365138B, overload volume 227260MB
Member(2): transport-group: 0, interface: port3, flags=0x0 , gateway: 10.0.4.1, source 10.0.4.10, priority: 1 1024, weight: 37
Config volume ratio: 1, last reading: 2419071026478B, volume room 37MB

 

Can anyone advice on how to change the weight of the second member.

 

Thank You.

Hi BKR,

You can adjust the weight of the SD-WAN member using the below commands:

config system sdwan
config member
edit <interface>
set weight <1-255>
end


Please refer to the below document for more information:
