multigateway - load balancing algorithm ?
« on: April 26, 2011, 02:39:15 pm »
Hello everybody :-)

I've been testing the multi gateway - load balancing function, and I can't get my head around on what algorithm has been implemented to load balance (actually load share  ;)). Initially I thought it was simple round-robin, but testing it with a:

Code: [Select]
traceroute -m 1 google.com
I get truly random first hop results. So I guess it's just "random", am I correct?
