| Configuring the WSM using Device Manager |
Redirection filters redirect traffic initiated from within the user's network to a group of devices at the other end of the WAN link (routers, for example). These filters determine the best link at the time of the request. To ensure that the responses traverse the same link, the source IP address of the request is translated to one of the addresses that the selected ISP owns. The design of WAN link load balancing is identical to standard redirection, except that it substitutes the source IP address of each frame with the proxy IP address of the port to which the WAN link is connected.
