Risposta suggeritaHow does ISP load balancing work?

    I have configured ISP load balancing with a 70/30 ratio.
    I use the download manager ReGet to download a couple of large files. ReGet downloads each file using multiple HTTP connections (20 in my case). I expected to see those connections distributed across the two ISPs according to the ratio. But, all connections goes through ISP1.
    Is there a way to configure the load balancing algorithm?

    Acually our algorithm ensures stickiness for traffic between a client ip and a server IP. So if the same client ip and the same server IP are used it will use the same ISP for all these connections.

    The algorithm is basically to load balance [client,server] connections between the 2 defined ISPs according to the ratio.

    Do internet sites require stickiness?
    Wouldn't it be better to default to non sticky connections and be able to configure spesific servers to be sticky? Or vice versa.
