Expert opinion: About the routing function Selection of Internet cafe multi-Wan applications (1)

You are familiar with the Multi-Wan application. Access to multiple broadband channels, especially for Internet cafes, has become an essential means of operation. Therefore, in addition to a variety of special functions, Internet cafe routers have become the top priority of Internet cafe routers.

For multi-Wan Internet cafes, the types and quantity of broadband access may be different: There is a typical "one-two-way" Method for China Telecom and China Netcom; there is a China Netcom and a China tietong atypical "One, Two" network; there are two "Bandwidth convergence" of China Telecom ADSL (or China Netcom "; there are more than three "One, multiple networks "......

Note that the router selection function must be different for different multi-Wan access methods.

If you do not notice the matching between the multi-Wan function and the application, it may cause problems with the game card and slow speed. What's worse, the multi-Wan Route is updated at a high price, because you chose the wrong multi-Wan function and sacrificed the bandwidth efficiency, you have never been overwhelmed. There are also some important functions that are crucial to the long-term maintenance of Internet cafes.

This article will briefly introduce the matching functions of broadband routing in several multi-Wan applications. At the same time, from the perspective of installation and maintenance, we will talk about some further features of Multi-Wan routing, hoping to help you.

I. Typical "one, two, and one" Method

One Telecom and one Netcom are currently the most common multi-Wan access methods. In this way, various broadband routes are configured with a Policy Routing library, that is, the IP addresses of China Telecom and China Netcom are collected, almost all of them can adapt to the requirements of the application environment.

However, "tricks will change for everyone, and their skill levels are different ". In this way, you need to consider installation and maintenance issues. The problem is that the Policy Routing library of "One, two networks" is the current version. In a few days, the IP addresses of China Telecom and China Netcom have changed, and game manufacturers have installed new servers. At this time, how to update your "one, two networks? When to update?

Download documents, manual upgrade, and restart routing? These maintenance work cannot be timely, tedious, or delayed, which is an annoying long-term maintenance. Is there a better way?

The advanced method is the "fully automated one-way dual-network" function. With this function, you do not have to worry about the changes of telecom, Netcom, and game manufacturers, resulting in passive operation. It can be used by the vendor to collect statistics and search for IP address changes around the clock, automatically upgrade the used Broadband Router through the network, and update the rule routing library. Your router has been upgraded without knowing it. This is an important part of Xinxiang's "fully automated one-bar multi-network" function.

Therefore, experts suggest that the typical "One-to-two-network" mode should focus on the fully automatic upgrade function, and select a Broadband Router with the "one-to-two-network" function.

2. The "one, two, and two" approach is not typical.

China Telecom (or China Netcom) and China tietong (or China Mobile, China Unicom, and education) are different types of "one-to-two-network ". Because its second broadband is not one of the most popular Telecom and China Netcom, it requires some special operations to identify and IP addresses in the Policy Routing library.

The first is identification. Advanced broadband routers can be identified, no matter where you are inserting the WAN port. At the same time, the second line of broadband should depend on the direction of China Telecom and China Netcom to determine who is closely related, that is, to choose to connect with China Telecom and China Netcom. This function is called "One-to-multiple-network automatic identification ".

Important are automatic document Selection and automatic upgrade. Because this method is not a typical application and there are many combinations of operators, you have to bother and ask the vendor for your database. There are too many artificial factors in the long-term upgrade and maintenance process in the future, there are many things to worry about.

Xin Xiang's "fully automated one-way multi-network" can identify more than 6 telecom operators, and the Policy Routing library contains all the IP addresses, including various access combinations, you do not need to select the type of the upgrade document. Xinxiang Broadband Router, the automatic network upgrade process is completely intelligent and automatic.

Therefore, experts suggest that the atypical "One-to-two-network" approach should focus on the automatic identification capability of broadband, and be able to identify and automatically upgrade without human intervention. Therefore, you need to select a Broadband Router with the "fully automated one-to-one multi-network" function.
