Cisco Routers :: RV016 / Load Balancing Effect On Ssh / HTTPS Connections
Feb 28, 2012
We have a RV016 load balancing between two broadband WAN connections. On protocols that are sensitive to a change in IP address such as ssh and https, if the client connection goes inactive for a short time (sometimes as short as 10 seconds), the RV016 often changes WAN connection as part of its "load balancing" feature. Most protocols do not even notice, but the more sensitive protocols do and often lock a session or timeout the session which is not a good thing.
We have been able to bind these sensitive protcolols to a particular WAN port but (in our minds) this is not an "ideal" situation. In fact I would consider this to be a broken "load balancing" solution and should be fixed.

this router (RV016v3, Firmware: v4.1.1.01-sp (Dec 6 2011 20:03:18)) in regards to it not properly directing UDP packets out of the right WAN, as per the settings stored in Protocol Binding section of [System Management, Multi-WAN].I use the section to direct all traffic from desktop computers (192.168.5.100 ~ 192.168.5.199) through WAN4, and all VoIP related traffic (192.168.5.200 ~ 192.168.5.239) through WAN2(PPPoE).Everything seems to be working well except for some of the UDP traffic from 192.168.5.200 which is seen in the log going out of WAN4 instead of WAN2.I have even created a new entry for [UDP/5060~5060]->192.168.5.200~192.168.5.200(0.0.0.0~255.255.255.255)WAN2, and placed it at the very top of the list.Here are a few lines that I've observed in the log: (Refreshed the registration of two SIP Trunks configured in our PBX)
Feb 23 18:11:47 2012 Connection Accepted UDP 192.168.5.200:5060->184.72.227.214:5060 on eth4
Feb 23 18:11:46 2012 Connection Accepted UDP 192.168.5.200:5060->50.56.59.168:5060 on ppp2
Feb 23 18:11:46 2012 Connection Accepted UDP 192.168.5.200:5060->184.72.227.214:5060 on eth4
Feb 23 18:11:46 2012 Connection Accepted UDP 192.168.5.200:5060->50.56.59.168:5060 on ppp2
There are no static routes configured, so i'm baffled by what could cause some of the UDP packets to go through the wrong WAN.All TCP Traffic from 192.168.5.200 is seen going though WAN2 as it should.

I have a customer who wants his new ASA-5520 to load balance out-going traffic between 2 ISPs, fairly normal request. Now here's the twist. He wants to separate traffic based upon the protocol used, http to one ISP, https to the other.

I am going to use a DQ77BK motherboard, which does "dual band" LAN. I have been told that with this, i can use two internet connections (from two different providers), so that when one fails, my computer still uses the other one. As you have understood, i need to be safetly connected to internet. I cannot have internet switched off in the middle of my work.
So, what do i need to do this ?
- Do i need 2 wifi cards, or would 1 "dual band" wifi card (like the Intel centrino 6200) be enough to handle it ?
- Do i need two antennas ?

I have DS3's to two different providers. Each is hosted on its own 7206. The 7206's are connected to each other and both connections to the internet route traffic in and out just fine. Failover between the two is working as well. The issue I have is that one DS3 is used more than the other because it has the best route to most of our remote offices. I wanted to see if theres a way to make one of my routers posess a more attractive route to a given subnet. Of course, in the event of a router or provider failure, I would want the other router to start routing the traffic for that office.

How is the best and easiest way to check kind of load balancing on the routers using BGP (Border Gateway Protocol)?

We have a network topology like 2821 router with MPLS link and 881 Router with DSL Connection(DMVPN).
MPLS Link runs in BGP
DSL Connection runs in EIGRP.
So the existing scenario is like When ever MPLS link goes down Traffic will be moved to DSL connection. and once it come again it will be moved back to DSL using HSRP we are doing this. in this case most of the times my DSL connection will be in standby mode.Now my management decided to use both the links in active state and want to do some load balance between the links for some specific traffic like Internet, WSUS Updates, Antivirus updates need to go through the DSL connection even the MPLS is up and running.

I have a rv042 router with two internet connections. I have setp the WAN1 and WAN2 and set the load balance mode. Surfing on internet is then not a problem and I checked that I was using the two internet connection.However if I try to connect to my corporate (OWA) outlook web access i am looping on the first page where I should provide my credentials.I know that most of the load balancer could be set up with a sticky bit to keep the session on the same WAN connection.

I bought one of these I am very disappointed by the management interface which is very limited/restricitve.I completely agree with Antonio here. In my case, most of my traffic is HTTPS sobinding https ports to a given WAN port makes the load balancing completely useless!!I also hope there will be a software update including the possibility to keep the session on the same WAN connection.

Our office of 40 employees has two internet connections: a fractional T1 (1.5Mbps up, 1.5 down) and an ADSL (386Kbps up, 6Mbps down). I have our RV082 configured in load balancing mode. Most of the high-bandwidth upstream protocols are bound to the T1 (FTP, SMTP, etc). HTTP is bound to the DSL in order to give users the fastest download experience.Things get fouled up when users attempt to upload via http (for instance, Youtube, Facebook, and Yousendit.com). Since the router recognizes the traffic as HTTP, it sends it up the very slow DSL line. Not only does the user experience long upload times, but downstream http traffic effectively grinds to a halt, due to the nature of ADSL (maximum download speed while uploading is 386kbps).

We are looking at purchasing and RV042 soon and have one cruitcial question. I am looking at having two internet connections running into the RV042. The only load balancing is going to be that all the VOIP traffic will go through one connection (eg WAN2) and then have all other traffic (such as web and email) through WAN1.
I am looking to have it so that if one of the internet connections goes down then it will failover EVERYTHING to the one that is working so both the VOIP and all the other traffic share the same connection until both WANs then go back online.

I have dual WAN connections on rv042G in "office 1". LAN is 192.168.10.x
A gateway to gateway VPN is made with another "office 2" on rv042G too.
The goal is to reach the LAN of the other "office 2" : 192.168.5.x
Working good. Now I need to use protocol binding : One LAN ip need to use WAN 2 : All traffic :192.168.10.77~77(0.0.0.0~0.0.0.0)WAN2 -> Working
The rest of LAN should use WAN 1 (same as the VPN) When I create this rules, I can't reach the "office 2" LAN : All traffic : 192.168.10.100~150(0.0.0.0~0.0.0.0)WAN1
What should I do to make it works ?

I am getting crazy with our Cisco Linksys RV016. It handles 3 simultaneous connections to the internet using 3 ISP. All our company goes to the internet using this cisco linksys RV016, our corporate switches are connected as clients to the router. Sometime ago, this router started to drop POP3 connections to our network, when this problems is present, all users get Receiving' reported error (0x80042108) in Outlook 2007-2010. Currently i have setup POP3 service to use the First ISP connection, but when this problem is present, the only way to eventually resolve it is to switch the link POP3 Service from the First to the Third ISP, sometimes it works immediately, sometimes don't. We are using this router since 2007 but this problems started to arise from this month.
Our switch is the latest firmware available is Cisco website, this is the Firmware Version: 3.0.2.01-tm.

Windows Messenger continually connects and disconnects. This behavior is permanent I only have problems with Messengers (all releases), web page access is correct. I check bandwith saturation and It's ok, I use less than 50% of each DSL. I configured the correct size of MTU for each DSL and the problem continues.Is there any way to set priority to this service? Is there any way to check if the "load balance mode" affect this kind of connections?

We have tried a variety of options in an attempt to use Load Balancing (Protocol Binding) with an RV082 that has a site to site IPsec tunnel with another RV082. Both are v3.
Here is the issue. We have dual ISPs, one has great bandwidth, but we incur overages. The other has mediocre bandwidth, but has unlimited usage.
GROUP1 - We want most PCs to use the "unlimited" ISP for general surfing, email, etc. (Bound all ports for range of internal IPs to ANY dest to WAN1)
GROUP2 - We want to use the "faster" ISP for our VPN tunnel (mostly RDP and SIP traffic). (Bound all ports for range of internal IPs to ANY dest to WAN2)
So far everything works. The router will route traffic appropriately and GROUP 1 uses WAN1 and GROUP 2 uses WAN2.
Unfortunately, sometimes GROUP1 users need access to resources over the VPN (WAN2).
There is something not right with the routing. For example GROUP1 can ping and receive responses from devices on the other side of the tunnel, but GROUP1 can't access intranet sites on the other side of the tunnel. They also can't RDP to PCs on the other side of the tunnel.
Why does the router correctly route ICMP, but not RDP?
We've tried adding additional protocol binding rules for specific ports(80, 3389, etc) and ip ranges (both local and remote) to see if we could force GROUP1 traffic destined via VPN through WAN2, but it doesn't work.
Shouldn't VPN tunnels created and configured in the RVs not adhere to protocol binding? It just seems logical to me, but maybe I am missing something.

i'm trying to accomplish the following:I want to trasport a bunch of vlan layer 2 etherchannel on a pair of layer3 connections, using L3 to load balance.i was considering a pair of options:
1) bridging + gre (non applicable since i cant bridge 2 interface beloging to a etherchannel to a tunnel)
2) L2TP is it possible to accomplish this with the above tecnology? any reference, configuration example?
3) AoMLPS is it possible to accomplish this with the above tecnology ? any reference, configuration example?
I cant modify topology, the routers used are ASR1001 It is mandatory that both sites have a layer2 connection between them.

I have a Cisco 2811 router with two HWIC-ADSL cards configured for dsl connection. I have two lines from the same ISP and i am load balancing between them. I have created a couple of SLA's to check the state of the connections and add to the routing table the two default routes if both are up or any one of them is up.My problem is that when i try to download big files (especially antivirus updates) the download at some point stops (especially the antivirus exits with an error of unreachability). If i shut down one line everything works fine.Could i use something (configuration-wise) to prevent this problem from happening?????Is there any way i can combine the two lines? They are simple ADSL connctions with static ip's.

I need to configure DSL Load Balancing on Core Cisco Switch 4506-E. I have a Router Cisco 2811 with 2GE Ports and a Firewall Cisco ASA5505. I have 8 Physical DSL Connections with 1Mb each. I need to combine that 8 Mb on Core Switch and allow each end user to access the Internet via the available DSL connection which means that every user has 8 Mb available.

We have an ASA5520 pair that we will be installing to load balance SSLVPN connections. Below is a portion of our configs pertaining to the VPN load-balancing feature (configured on both ASAs):My specific question is related to routing of return traffic to load-balanced VPN sessions. Is there some kind of persistence function that tells the return traffic which ASA to route back to? For instance, if ASA1 has a VPN connection having IP address 10.211.112.1 associated to it, and ASA2 has a VPN connection having IP address 10.211.112.100, how does the return traffic for each connection know which ASA to route back to?

Currently we have deployed site to site vpn between 2 asa 5510 model. one is corporate site and one is remote site. now we plan to use radware load balancer in which 2 isp will terminate. now if at a remote site wecreate only 1 ipsec tunnel and mention sigle isp peering. if one isp fails at corporate how remote site will be access by site to site vpn through 2 isp vpn. what thing we need to do over asa as well as load balancer at both end.

We have Cisco CSS 11501 and connected in One-Arm way.Currently there are 4 source sending traffic and 3 server to receive the request. We are using Advance-balancing with Source IP. So the ratio become 2:1:1 or 1:2:1 or 1:1:2.But our target is to do the load balancing in equal ratio.

I want to load balance my Internet traffic between two ASR 1001 routers that are connected to our core switches. Both routers are connected to the same ISP (Comcast) going to the same BGP AS on different /30 subnets. Is there a way for me to load balance my Internet traffic using both connections with BGP rather than having one of these connections sitting idle? If not, the only solution I see is to configure my layer 3 devices to split internet traffic between both routers (i.e. default routes with same AD).

confirm is Per packet load balancing is supported in the 3560's ?
I am going around in circles, and can't find a definate Y or N answer.
I have a suspicion this CEF feature is only available on routers.

I came up with a few ideas to Load Balance based on multiple ISPs. In our network setup we have a distribution layer of 3750s going to an ASR 1000 Series Router, which goes out to multiple ISPs, ISP1 and ISP2.
we also have a virtual fortinet appliance behind the 3750. If I say all traffic going to 0 - 126 goto ISP1, and 128 - 254 goto ISP2,and then obviously whatever NATd IP the customer has (ISP1 or ISP2), the return traffic will have to go to that specific IP. The traffic will allgo back to the virtual fortinet on the same interface, so I would assume I would be safe with uPF.I don't know of any ways to load balance based on Link Optimization, without implementing a load balancer?
