Path Selection Commands
This section describes the path selection commands. Path selection refers to the ability to choose the best or most appropriate predefined WAN gateway for certain traffic flows in real time, based on availability. You define a path, called an uplink, by specifying a WAN egress point and providing a direction for the egressing packets to take. A common use of path selection is to route voice and video over an expensive, high-quality MPLS link, while offloading less time-sensitive business traffic over a less-expensive Internet VPN link or direct Internet link. This solution provides the right performance levels for your applications and saves on bandwidth costs by optimizing the use of available bandwidth.
Path selection works independently of the SteelHead optimization service and functions even if you pause the optimization service or if the optimization service becomes unavailable.
