Load Balancing?

Tue Sep 13, 2011 6:52 pm

I have got 2 adsl lines that i want to load balance

192.168.3.240
192.168.3.254

is this a correct way? or do you need to mangle the packets?

thanks for replying

How do I implement that using gateway 192.168.3.240 - 192.168.3.254

as they are on the same range?

If there is only one actual interface you can't load balance. If you simply mean that there's two interfaces using the same gateway IP read this thread: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=54844

Fewi, are you sure you can't balance with PCC with just one interface? I tried some setup's and I ended up with a working configuration using just one eth iface on the Mikrotik to the switch where the DSL routers where connected. Maybe I'm wrong, it's been some time since i tested it. And I can't find the backup file I took of the settings :(

Thanks!

Load Balancing?

Same physical interface and same gateway IP means the router can't distinguish between circuits.
