After upgrading to firmware version 7.4.1, the maximize bandwidth (SLA) will be replaced with a load balancing strategy.

There are three options to select an outgoing interface in the new interface:

 

  1. Manual
  2. Best quality
  3. Lowest cost (SLA)

This Load balancing option is available only for two strategies: Manual and low-cost SLA.

 

When the Load balancing option is enabled, only the lowest-cost SLA uses SLA Targets.
