N5200 an load balancing conection?
Hello!
I have planed to buy a Thecus N5200.
I like like to use the 802.3ad based load balancing function for a double connection.
The N5200 has 2 Network ports 1 WAN and 1 LAN.
My network architecture is:
in the basement
1 ADSL Router with 4 10/100 Switch Ports and it's always power on.
1 Thecus N5200 it's is always power on.
1st. floor
1 Switch 8x 10/100/1000 Ports it's sometimes power on.
4 PC's it's sometimes power on.
Standart I like to connect the N5200 with the Switch 1st. floor.
For access from Internet I like to connect the N5200 with the ADSL Router.
In the time there the 1000er Switch 1st. floor is power off the N5200 has a connection to internet over the 100er Port from the ADSL Modem.
Will I got problems in my network with this configuration?
Greetings, Thorsten:-)

Dear Sir,
The the load balancing which menas we need connet the WAN & LAN to a HUB which supported 802.3ad. In your case the N5200 WAN port could link to the ADSL Router & The LAN port connect to the 1st. foller switch.
and the WAN & LAN IP must in difference segment.
