Weighted Routing Method

The weighted routing method directs traffic to endpoints based on ratios. Below are the steps to create and configure a Weighted Profile.

1. Access the TFM service dashboard

Select the “Traffic Manager” service from the Menu.

Select Create Profile.

2. Enter Profile configuration information

Provide the profile details and configure the health check.

Configure traffic routing by weight. For example, here the endpoint with target 10.3.76.20 has a weight of 5, and the target 10.3.76.21 has a weight of 10. => The traffic ratio to the endpoints is:

10.3.76.20 is 5/(5+10) = 33.33%
10.3.76.21 is 10/(5+10) = 66.66%

3. Review the configured profile information

4. Click the Confirm button

5. View the newly created profile on the profile list page

6. Check if the Profile is active

Get the DNS name.

Use Dig online tool and enter the copied DNS to perform a dig test.
