Configuring Load Balancing - Switching Hubs
Only the switching hubs provide a load balancing feature to automatically
distribute the switching hub ports among the four segments to optimize
performance. For switching hubs with version A.01.01 firmware this feature
requires a switch module. For switching hubs with firmware versions later
than A.01.01, the hub can load balance with an external switch.
To access this feature, select the Load Balancing button. Click on the
Perform Automatic Load Balancing
button. If you want to undo the load
balancing, select the Undo Last Load Balancing button.
