Hi folks,
I have a strange problem distributing traffic over sd-wan in fortios 5.6.2
We have 4 wan connections.
Two of them are 100MBit down and 40 up.
The other two are 16Mbit down and 1 up.
I entered the bandwith of each interface it's config.
All connections are bound to the sd-wan interface.
So far working fine.
Now i want to have the two fast interfaces used mostly.
So I set traffic volume weight 100 to the fast ones and only 5 to the slow ones.
Problem ist that the traffic volume still ist nearly perfectly 25% on each interface.
Any idea?
Thank you!
Dear friend,
what type of load balancing algorithm you are using .
if you are using weight method, you have to put 45-45 for both fast and 5-5 for slow.
they you will get proper distribution of speed and network .
I'm using the volume weight method.
As I understood, the weight entrys are just proportions, so even 1000/1000/1/1 should do it ...
I changed now to 45/45/5/5 and will see what happens.
Still the same. It's nearly exactly 25% Traffic on each interface.
Any other idea?
