System Management Tab - Dual-WAN
Dual-WAN
There are two functions provided for users – Smart Link Backup and Load Balance. If you selected DMZ on the
setup page, you cannot do the Dual-WAN settings here.
If Smart Link Backup is selected, you only need to choose which WAN port is the primary and then the other will
be the backup. See Figure 6-22.
If Load Balance is selected, there will be two main choices: By Traffic – Intelligent Balancer (Auto) and user
defined. See Figure 6-23.
First, choose the Max. Bandwidth of Upstream (64K/128K/256K/384K/512K/1024K/1.5M/2M/2.5M or above) and
Downstream (512K/1024K/1.5M/2M/2.5M or above) for WAN1 and WAN2, as provided by your ISP.
Intelligent Balancer (Auto): When choosing Intelligent Balancer, it will automatically compute the maximum
bandwidth of WAN1 and WAN2 by using Weighted Round Robin to balance the loading.
If (upstream / downstream / upstream or downstream) bandwidth is excessive (30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%,
90%), bring up the second link.
When there is an inactivity time-out (None/10min/20min/30min/40min/50min/60min), the second link will be
terminated.
Click the Save Settings button to save the Dual WAN Load Balance settings or click the Cancel Changes button
to undo the changes.
System Management Tab - SNMP
SNMP, or Simple Network Management Protocol, is a network protocol that provides network administrators with
the ability to monitor the status of the Router and receive notification of any critical events as they occur on the
network. The Router supports SNMP v1/v2c and all relevant Management Information Base II (MIBII) groups. The
appliance replies to SNMP Get commands for MIBII via any interface and supports a custom MIB for generating
trap messages. See Figure 6-24.
To configure SNMP, enter the necessary information in the following fields:
Enable SNMP: SNMP is enabled by default. To disable the SNMP agent, leave the box blank.
System Name: This is the hostname of the Router.
