Examples:1.An FTP server (IP_192.168.2.2) and an HTTP server (IP_192.168.2.3) are connected to the Internet via WAN1

(IP_200.200.200.1) and WAN2 (IP_100.100.100.1) on the BiGuard 30.

2.Register www.mydomain.com to your domain service provider and set 200.200.200.1 as primary DNS server I

and set 100.100.100.1 as secondary DNS server IP.

3.BiGuard 30 can direct incoming DNS queries to either WAN port based on the amount of load each WAN port

currently experiencing. If WAN1 is experiencing a heavy load, the BiGuard 30 responds to incoming DNS query

with WAN2 IP address.
