Multipath Rules vs Static Routing (Policy Routes) ?

Dear Experts,

We have 3x Internet access lines using Uplink Balancing.

We are using services for online file storage accessed by WebDAV (HTTPS) mostly.

I want do force all the traffic on HTTPS to destination i.e. "PROVIDER.com" to go over our dedicated line (same upload and download), let's call it "line1".

What is the best strategy in performance regarding the Astaro overload? And what is the difference in between?:

a) using Interfaces&Routing > Static Routing > Policy Rules (Any>Any>HTTPS>provider.com>interface "line1")

or

b) using Interfaces&Routing > Interfaces > Multipath Rules (Any>HTTPS>provider.com>line1)

Thank you in advance!
Uwe

Hi, Andre, and we're glad you have begun posting!

I'm not certain that I understood your scenario, but if you want to use the web proxy to send one subnet's requests via ISP1 and the other subnet's via ISP2, then your only possible choice is Uplink Balancing with 'Itf. Persistance: by interface' Multipath rules.
