not supported.
NOTE: if a server has one Internet IP address and multiple server names, and if one of the
names is defined here, accesses to any one of the server names will also match this rule.
Protocol and Port
This setting specifies the IP protocol and port of traffic that matches this rule.
Algorithm
This setting specifies the behavior of the Pepwave router for the custom rule.
One of the following values can be selected (note that some Pepwave routers provide only
some of these options):
● Weighted Balance
● Persistence
● Enforced
● Priority
● Overflow
● Least Used
● Lowest Latency
For a full explanation of each Algorithmn, please see the following article:

Terminate
Sessions on Link
Recovery
This setting specifies whether to terminate existing IP sessions on a less preferred WAN
connection in the event that a more preferred WAN connection is recovered. This setting is
applicable to the Weighted, Persistence, and Priority algorithms. By default, this setting is
disabled. In this case, existing IP sessions will not be terminated or affected when any other
WAN connection is recovered. When this setting is enabled, existing IP sessions may be
terminated when another WAN connection is recovered, such that only the preferred
healthy WAN connection(s) is used at any point in time.
10.5 Inbound Access
Inbound access is also known as inbound port address translation. On a NAT WAN connection,
all inbound traffic to the server behind the Peplink unit requires inbound access rules.
By the custom definition of servers and services for inbound access, Internet users can access
the servers behind Peplink Balance. Advanced configurations allow inbound access to be
distributed among multiple servers on the LAN.
Important Note
Inbound access applies only to WAN connections that operate in NAT mode. For WAN connections that operate in
drop-in mode or IP forwarding, inbound traffic is forwarded to the LAN by default.
10.5.1 Servers
The settings to configure servers on the LAN are located at Network>Inbound
Access>Servers.
Inbound connections from the Internet will be forwarded to the specified Inbound IP address(es)
based on the protocol and port number. When more than one server is defined, requests will be
distributed to the servers in the weight ratio specified for each server.
