By Source IP: For services that require using the same IP address throughout the

WAN port (i.e. IP address) over which the session was created to avoid

disconnection caused by the variation of the user’s IP address.

By Destination IP: Once a session is created between the CS-2001 and a

specific host, then the following sessions linking to that host will be

automatically distributed to the same WAN port.
