Nope. Connection based load balancing, not bandwidth based. --Bill - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [pfSense Support] Questions about Load Balancing
Hello, I am going to try Pfsense next week, it sure will be a great product. Very nice work! I have been looking for something like this for a LONG time! You might see what Cyberoam is using, to get some ideas maybe. www.cyberoam.com. The software, not the CR series. It is based on Linux or a UNIX, but very expensive! It looks great, but have not tried it yet, waiting for pfsense to leave alfa! But will try it on 190 machines in my network.Yes, I know it is ALPHA!

Hey Moacry, do you notice if it appropriately distributes the load?

Re: [pfSense Support] Questions about Load Balancing
Not unique, we just don't have an easy way to implement ratio based load balancing at this time. BTW, it'd be connection based anyway, not true bandwidth balancing. I'd recommend putting some clients on one connection, some on the other and manually balance the links using rules. --Bill On 9/29/05, Wesley K.
