Periodic latency checking packets are sent to the WAN connection. Latency will then be determined by the response time of the second and third hops. The traffic matching this rule will be routed through the healthy WAN connection with the lowest latency.

On current firmware, the default “ Auto ” rule uses the lowest latency algorithm.

Common use case - Useful for time-sensitive applications such as online gaming.

Understanding and Configuring Outbound Policy

Outbound Policy allows you to define how your LAN-to-Internet traffic gets routed out via a number of rule/algorithm options. Each deployment is unique and Peplink’s flexible and easy to use UI allows you to setup options quickly. InControl 2 (as of latest firmware) enables another option to manage Outbound Policy. Easily define your rules under Network > Outbound Policy: Make sure that Outbound Policy at the top is set to Custom [Untitled%20drawing] [image] The following types of Outboun…
