XG Load Balancing

Alex Harding1

Hi all

We have two internet lines and weights set as below

The customer wants 80% of internet traffic to go out on the VDSL and the rest to go out on the Leaseline.
Have I set the weights correctly?

The next question is the default SNAT rule is set on the outbound interfaces as the lease line and VDSL_WAN, I have no option to select WAN balance here so how do I know the traffic is actually being balanced as from what I have seen it is not.

I have the phones going out via a NAT rule using the LeaseLine - Which seems to be working.

Should I be creating some sort of SD-WAN policy for the whole network and creating a separate SD policy for the Phones?

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello Alex,

    Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community.

    You can create a SD-WAN Policy, and select Primary Gateway as WAN Link load balance for the whole network.

    For the phones, does your customer wants if the VDSL_WAN fails to send the traffic via the Leased line?

    Regards,

    Hi Emmanuel

    Does this mean that setting the weights on the line is not really a thing anymore, or is the weight still taken into effect when load balancing is selected via SD-WAN?

    Yes, the customer would like the phones to fail over to the lease line if the VDSL fails.

    I assume I would disable my NAT rule that is currently in place for the phones and enable the SD WAN.
