by 3 consecutive fails, the router will determine failover to WAN2 (backup port)).
2).The failback setting follow the same decision policy as the failover. For example, according to settings above
in the screenshot, the connection probe will be carried out every 30 seconds, and 3 consecutive times of probe
success is found, the router will determine failback to WAN1 (main WAN).
Probe WAN 1/2: Choose the probe policy, to probe gateway or host (users decide themselves)
Gateway: It will send ping packets to gateway of Wan1 interface and wait for response from it in every
“Probe Cycle” to check the connectivity of the gateway of WAN1 interface.
Host: It will send ping packets to specific host and wait for response in every “Probe Cycle”. The host
must be an IP address

5.5.2 Outbound Load Balance (7600NX only)
The connections are distributed over WAN1 and WAN2 so that it can utilize bandwidth of both WAN ports. With
Outbound load balance, traffic may be routed to a faster link when one of the WAN is slower or congested so
that user gains better throughput and less delay.
User can distribute outbound traffic based on Session Mechanism or IP Hash Mechanism.
Based on Session Mechanism
Balance by Session (Round Robin): Balance session traffic based on a round robin method.
Balance by Session weight: Balance session traffic based on a weight ratio. Enter the desired ratio in the
fields provided.
Balance by Traffic weight: Balance traffic based on a traffic weight ratio. Enter the desired ratio into the fields
provided.
Based on IP Hash Mechanism
Balance by weight: Use an IP hash to balance traffic based on a ratio. Enter the desired ratio into the fields
provided.
