WLLB and asymmetric routing

Hello,

 

When doing WAN link load balancing, it is likely to experience the asymmetric routing issue. In such case, one thing you can do is to enable asymmetric routing (set asymroute enable), but according to the documentation, this disables stateful inspection and causes potential security issues. My question is:

 

What is the recommended configuration for WLLB that resolves the asymmetric routing problem, without compromising security?

 

Thanks

Andreas

You could create two VDOMs, one for WAN and the other for the firewall. The WAN VDOM has asy routing enabled and the firewall one doesn't.
