Can we achieve ISP redundancy with 1430 appliance?

Hi team,

Wondering since 1430 comes with only WAN interface. - Can we

1. Create/convert LAN interface as WAN?
2. And achieve ISP redundancy with 1430 appliances if managed through Central SMS server?

Yes:

• High availability (ISP Redundancy): Makes Internet connectivity more reliable with ISP Redundancy.
• Load Balancing: Distributes traffic between the primary and secondary connections.

ISPs:

•  WAN or DMZ is for most types of Internet connections. 

• LAN. You can also use unassigned LAN ports with no VLANs for Internet connections. When you delete the internet connection, the port revers to an unassigned LAN. 

• USB/Serial is for cellular or analog modems.

• ADSL/VDSL. PPoE, IPoE - static IP, or IPoE - dynamic IP.

Thanks - Let me see.

So any of the unused LAN can be used for WAN connection.

Please refer SMB-6359 also load-sharing mode disables SXL per sk165121

This is ok - I am not going for ISP redundancy but will go for two ISPs and not sure again if PBR can be configured? So that  traffic from say LAN-2 192.168.5.0 will be natted to WAN1 while traffic from LAN-3 172.16.24.0/24 will be natted through DMZ.
