3.2 How to Configure WAN Inbound Load Balance? The document introduces Inbound Load Balance, which is a feature allows Vigor 2960/300B/3900, when acting as a DNS Server, to distribute the traffic across multiple WAN interfaces. There will be five parts of setting: enabling Web/FTP services on the router, setting weight for the Web server, setting weight for the FTP server, and setting CNAME for the FILE server, and setting NS Record (optional). A. Enabling Web/FTP services on the router 1.
2. Go to WAN >> Load Balance to enable the services. B. Setting weight for the Web server 1. Add a profile for domain name “jos.com” and “www.jos.tw”, then assign a weight of 1 to WAN 1 and 2 for WAN2. This meas that when receiving three DNS queries, DNS server will return WAN1's IP for the first time, and WAN'2 IP for the next two times. 2. Click Detail tab to add Additional A Record for Host Name “www.jos.com” to corresponds with “jos.com” with same weight 1:2.
After the settings have done, we do “nslookup” to query the domain name for 3 times, and the results are reflecting the Interface Weights. The test of query for “jos.com” First DNS query >jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: jos.com Address: 77.77.77.77 Second DNS query >jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: jos.com Address: 88.88.88.88 Third DNS query >jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: jos.com Address: 88.88.88.88 The test of query for “www.
Address: 88.88.88.88 Aliases: www.jos.com Third DNS query >www.jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: jos.com Address: 88.88.88.88 Aliases: www.jos.com C. Setting weight for the File server (Sub-domain) 1. Add a profile for Sub-domain “fileserver.jos.com" with Load Balance Mode, and assign a weight of 1 to WAN 1 and 2 for WAN2. Note: “Use Domain Setting” Mode means the weight will be the same as the weight of Domain Name “jos.com”.
>fileserver.jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: fileserver.jos.com Address: 88.88.88.88 D. Setting CNAME for the File server (Sub-domain) 1. After creating profile for Sub-domain “fileserver.jos.com", we may add CNAME Record for Sub-domain “fileserver.jos.com" via Inbound Load Balance >> Detail page. 2. Click Add then input host "ftp" and select "fileserver" as Reference. After the settings we do nslookup and query “ftp.jos.
>ftp.jos.com Server: [77.77.77.77] Address: 77.77.77.77 Name: fileserver.jos.com Address: 88.88.88.88 Aliases: ftp.jos.com E. Setting up NS Records (Optional) 1. NS Record is not necessary since the NS records should be already available in the upper DNS servers. 2. When NS server is with different domain name, such as “vivian.com”, please add the NS Record with name server field and end it with “.” (a dot) 3. When NS server is with same domain name, such as “jos.
3.3 How to Configure WAN Load Balancing with Policy Route on Vigor300B? This document demonstrates how to do WAN load balancing with Policy Route feature in Routing. In the firmware before version 1.0.9, this is a feature in WAN menu called Load Balance Rule. After upgrading firmware to version 1.0.9, the Rules set in WAN >> Load Balance will be transferred to Policy Rule automatically. In this example, we have WAN1 and WAN2 connected on Vigor3900, and we would like to balance the traffic across them.
a. Enter rule name. b. Enable this rule. c. Select Source Type as Subnet, and enter the IP address and Subnet Mask of LAN1. d. Select Out-Going Rule as User Defined, and Interface as WAN1. e. Enable Failover to Next Rule so that when WAN1 fails, it will follow the next rule. f. Click Apply to save the configuration. With the above configuration, traffic from LAN1 will be sent to WAN1.
Default Pool can be configured at Routing>>Load Balance Pool. By default, every WAN interface has the same weight. So that when Default Route is applied, every available WAN interface will be used equally. 4. If you want to use a specific WAN interface to be the failover interface, please create another Policy Rule. For example, you can create a second rule for LAN2 to go to the Internet via WAN1. Now there are two policy rules with the same Source but different Out-going Rule.
