Outgoing traffic is balanced in a flow-based manner.
A connection tracking table is used to track flows by their source address, destination address and port.
Each flow is assingned to an interface according to the defined balancing rules and subsequent packets are sent through the same interface.
Each flow is assigned to an interface according to the defined balancing rules and subsequent packets are sent through the same interface.
This has the advantage that packets always arrive in order if links with different speeds are in use.
Packet-based balancing can lead to a better balance across interfaces when out of order packets are no issue. Per-packet-based balancing can be set for a balancing rule with:

Health checks

The health of interfaces and paths assingned to the load balancer is periodically checked by sending ICMP packets (ping) to remote destinations, a TTL test or the execution of a user defined script.
The health of interfaces and paths assigned to the load balancer is periodically checked by sending ICMP packets (ping) to remote destinations, a TTL test or the execution of a user defined script.
