In the above example, an FTP Server (IP_192.168.2.2) and an HTTP Server (IP_192.168.2.3) are
connected to the Internet via WAN1 (ftp.planet.com.tw) on MH-1000. A remote computer is trying to access
these servers via the Internet. Under normal circumstances, the remote computer will gain access to the
network via WAN1. Should WAN1 fail, Inbound Fail Over tells MH-1000 to reroute incoming traffic to WAN2
by using the Dynamic DNS mechanism. Configuring your MH-1000 for Inbound Fail Over provides a more
reliable connection for your incoming traffic.
Please refer to appendix D for example settings.
2.4.2 Inbound Load Balancing
Inbound Load Balancing allows MH-1000 to intelligently manage inbound traffic based on the amount of
load of each WAN connection.
