In LANconfig, client binding is configured under in the section Load balancing.
- Binding minutes
- Here you specify the time in minutes for the binding entries to be valid for a client.
- Balance seconds
- To prevent data from flowing via the main-session Internet connection when it could easily be transferred via parallel connections, a timer ensures that the load balancer distributes additional sessions between the available Internet connections for a specified period. After the timer expires, the client binding forces a new session over the original Internet connection and the timer is restarted. The server thus continues to recognize the login status for the user due to the current IP address. Here you specify the time in seconds, following the start of the main session, during which the load balancer is free to distribute new sessions to other Internet connections.
Client binding is protocol-oriented. You set the corresponding protocols under Client binding protocols. The table already contains the default entries

- ANY
- Name

- Protocol

Note: Learn more about IP protocol numbers in the IANA Online database.

Client binding can be activated or deactivated for each of the entries under Load balancing.
