• Click OK
5. Select Add > Route again to add the second route
6. The dialog for a new route will appear. For the second route, enter:
• Interface: WAN2
• Network: all-nets
• Gateway: GW2
• Local IP address: Leave as None
• Metric: 100
• Click OK
Step 2. Create an RLB Instance object
A Route Load Balancing Instance object is now created which uses the Destination algorithm will
be selected to achieve stickiness so the server always sees the same source IP address (WAN1 or
WAN2) from a single client.
Command-Line Interface
Device:/> add RouteBalancingInstance main Algorithm=Destination
InControl
Follow the same steps used for the Web Interface below.

1. Go to: Network > Routing > Instances > Add > Route Balancing Instance
2. The route balancing instance dialog will appear. Now select:
• Routing Table: main
• Algorithm: Destination
• Click OK
Step 3. Create IP rules to allow traffic to flow
Finally, IP rules needed to be added to an IP rule set to allow traffic to flow. The detailed steps for
this are not included here but the created rules would follow the pattern described above.
RLB with VPN
When using RLB with VPN, a number of issues need to be overcome.
If we were to try and use RLB to balance traffic between two IPsec tunnels, the problem that
arises is that the Remote Endpoint for any two IPsec tunnels in cOS Core must be different. The
solutions to this issue are as follows:
