Pools let you distribute outgoing traffic between multiple aggregators by percentage. Instead of sending 100% of traffic through one aggregator, you can split it – for example, 50% through one and 50% through another. Pools are then assigned to routes, so traffic automatically flows through the right mix of aggregators.
Go to Current Traffic → Routing → Pools.
Click Create a Pool.
In the window that opens:
Fill in the fields:
|
Field |
Description |

ⓘ The total percentage across all aggregators in a pool must equal 100%. If there's only one aggregator, set it to 100%. If there are two, split them however you like – 50/50, 70/30, and so on. |
Use the green + button to add more aggregators and the red – button to remove them.
Click Create.
The pool will appear in the Pools list and can now be assigned to routes. Any changes to the pool's aggregator split take effect immediately across all routes using it.
