Peplink Balance Series

The traffic matching this rule will be routed through the healthy WAN connection that is selected in

Connection and has the lowest latency. Latency checking packets are issued periodically to a nearby

router of each WAN connection to determine its latency value. The latency of a WAN is the packet round

trip time of the WAN connection. Additional network usage may be incurred as a result.

Tip

The round trip time of a 6M down /640k uplinkcan be higher than that of a 2M down /2M up linkbecause the overall

round trip time is lengthened by its slowerupload bandwidth, despite its higher downlink speed.Therefore, this

algorithm isgood for two scenarios:

· All WAN connections are symmetric; or

· A latency sensitive application must be routed through the lowestlatency WAN,regardless the WAN’s

available bandwidth.

14.2.8 Expert Mode

Expert Mode is available for advanced users.To enable the feature,

click on the help icon and click turn on Expert Modeį

InExpert Mode, a new special rule,SpeedFusion

Routes, is displayed

inthe Custom Rules table.This rule represents all SpeedFusion

routes learned from remote VPN peers. By default, this bar is on the top

of all custom rules. This position means that traffic for remote VPN

subnets will be routed to thecorresponding VPN peer. You can create

custom Priority or Enforced rules and move them above the bar to

override the SpeedFusion

routes.

Upon disabling Expert Mode, all rules above the bar will be removed.
