Mikrotik Dual WAN Load Balancing Guide
This document provides instructions for setting up load balancing and failover between two internet connections using a Mikrotik router . It describes configuring IP addresses for the router's ethernet ports connected to each internet connection. Firewall rules are added to mark connections coming in on each port and route traffic out the appropriate connection. NAT masquerading is enabled on ...
The document discusses bandwidth-based load balancing with failover, outlining various load balancing types such as bonding, policy routing, and PCC. It provides detailed implementation considerations for setting up these systems, including configuration steps and the importance of marking connections for effective routing. The presentation emphasizes the need for automated and scalable ...

Failover ( WAN Backup) Per connection classifier Introduction Network load balancing is the ability to balance traffic across two or more links without using dynamic routing protocols. There are two type of balancing methods: per-packet - each packet of a single stream can be forwarded over different links. This method will work reliably especially on TCP and secure connections only when you ...
For configuring a perfect load balancing network with policy based routing, first you have to assign WAN and LAN IP addresses in your MikroTik Router . As you have two ISP connections, you must have two WAN IP addresses as well as two gateway addresses.

It covers: two DHCP WAN uplinks; recursive gateway checks; per-connection-classifier, or PCC, load balancing ; automatic failover inside each policy routing table; recursive main-table defaults for router -originated traffic, with optional ECMP; NAT masquerade across both WANs . It is written as a guide, not just a pastebin.
Dual- WAN Load Balancing & Failover on MikroTik (PCC + Recursive Routing) Combine two internet connections for higher speed and automatic failover. This guide covers PCC load balancing , recursive routing for reliable WAN detection, and firewall rules - all on MikroTik RouterOS.

Router OS options ECMP→ Equal Cost Multi path Routing Traffic divided up per src-dst-address combination. Chances of traffic switching gateways when routing tables are periodically flushed. Nth Load Balancing Ties user to same source IP address (persistent user sessions)
A production-ready MikroTik RouterOS v7 configuration for Dual WAN Load Balancing and Automatic Failover. This configuration combines Per Connection Classifier (PCC) with Policy-Based Routing (PBR) to provide reliable internet redundancy and bandwidth aggregation. Suitable for environments requiring high availability across multiple ISP connections.
