Traffic Policy

Step 1 — information

Figure 7.1

Traffic Policy Wizard — introduction

To run successfully, the wizard requires the following parameters on the WinRoute host:

at least one active adapter connected to the local network

at least either one active adapter connected to the Internet or one dial-up defined. This

connection is not required to be dialed at the moment of the wizard’s startup.

Steps 2 and 3— internet connection settings

On the second page of the wizard, select how the LAN will be connected to the Internet with

WinRoute (leased link, dial-up, leased link with connection failover or multiple links with net-

work traffic load balancing).

On the third page, you can set parameters for the selected type of Internet connection.

Individual options of Internet connection are addressed thoroughly in chapter

6

.

Note:

1.

Selection of Internet connection type does not affect resulting traffic rules, but only con-

figuration of interfaces and their classification in groups (see chapters

5

and

6

).

2.

The Traffic Policy Wizard no longer includes the option to enable /disable IP address trans-

lation (

NAT

) which was available in older versions of WinRoute. In all created traffic rules,

NAT is enabled automatically. The reason for this is that modes of network load balancing,

connection failover and on-demand dialing cannot actually be used without NAT.
