Advanced Configuration Settings Load Balancing Settings Path: SETUP > Internal Settings > Option Mode The wireless controller supports load balancing when: • A D-Link VPN license key has been installed (see "Activating Licenses" on page 208). • Multiple Option ports are configured. • Protocol bindings have been configured (go to ADVANCED > Routing > Protocol Bindings and refer to the online help). Load balancing allows the wireless controller to distribute traffic among multiple Option ports. The wireless controller supports the following types of load-balancing methods: • Round Robin - divides traffic equally among all Option ports. This selection is useful when the connection speed of one Option port differs greatly from another. In this case you can define protocol bindings to route low-latency services (such as VOIP) over the higher-speed link and let low-volume background traffic (such as SMTP) go over the lower speed link. • Spillover Mode - configures the Option port as a dedicated link until a user-defined load tolerance or link bandwidth threshold is reached. If the link bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the wireless controller directs the next connections to the secondary Option port. To configure the wireless controller for load balancing: 1. Click SETUP > Internal Settings > Option Mode. The OPTION MODE page appears. 75 DWC-1000 Wireless Controller User's Guide
