A Route Group is a user-configured set of Peer Nodes or Connections used to determine the distribution of traffic to each Peer Node in the same Route Group. Traffic is distributed among available Peer Nodes or Connections based on the configured capacity assignment of each available Peer Node or Connection.
For example, if Peer Node A has a configured capacity of 100 and Peer Node B has a configured capacity of 150, then 40% of the messages sent to the Route Group will be forwarded to Peer Node A and 60% of the messages will be forwarded to Peer Node B.
Each Route Group can be assigned a maximum of 160 Peer Nodes or Connections. Route Groups are assigned to Route Lists.
