WAN Link Load Balancing-Objects & VIPs

Hiya

 

We have just implemented WAN Link Load Balancing and all seemed straight forward until:

 

we are trying to create Virtual IPs under objects, when we specify an interface we would want to select the zone "WAN-Load-Balance" which host the 2 external ports. You cant do this.

 

Are you supposed to create 2 Virtual IP objects one for each of the external facing ports?

Hiya,

 

In this situation would it be safe to have email destined for Exchange and Mimecast coming down both links from different ISPs.

or would you split the traffic you get from each ISP.

 

Are client has been sold the Idea that both ISP connections will provide the same traffic.
