Bandwidth balancing help?

Thu Apr 07, 2005 12:23 am

How do I do load balancing with bonding by bandwidth? We got a 6mb/384kb wan1 connection and a 3mb/768kb wan2 connection. I know to use balance alb for this but not how to set bandwidth like Xincom uses percentage so above example would be set like 33% wan1 67% wan2 based on upload and differently for download. How is this handled in the new beta?

Could someone direct me to the right documentation? I can only find load balancing on linux sites for upload but not for download. I require 2 way load balancing as you can see from our two very different connections.

Thanks

The only thing I've fond on the bonding is this link:
http://www.mikrotik.com/docs/ros/2.9/interface/bonding

I too am trying to get the bonding working. So far so good, but the Doc's on it suck.

Marvin,
Not sure if this helps, but from the testing I've done if I set ether2 on both of the MTs to 10Mbit Half Duplex and leve ether3 on the same MTs set to 100Mbit Full duplex it seems to handle things fine.
The only thing I'm haveing truble with is fail over. (and my spelling)
OH, and the MTU is being a bitch with PPPoE connections.
