WAN Link Aggregation on XG?

Daniel Gilbert 9 months ago

I have 2 WAN links from the same provider with the same gateway. Would it be possible to aggregate the connections (bonding) for double the speed?

Hi Daniel Gilbert On the double speed part - with LAG we won’t get the double speed of combined lines as it just increases the throughput or in other simple terms “Think of a highway with one lane vs one…

Hi Daniel,

Thank you for reaching out to Sophos Community.

To verify with what you've said, " Same Gateway", does this mean it only has 1 Public IP?

Link Aggregation with two different ISP links won’t combine the speed. What you can do is Load the balance between links.
