UDM Pro Dual WAN Support

When I first planning to upgrade to UDM Pro, I noticed there seems to be lacking the dual WAN support. This provides a critical deficiency as an enterprise level gateway.

But if you examine the UMD Pro Spec closely, you will see:

(8) 10/100/1000 RJ45 LAN Ports
(1) 10/100/1000 RJ45 WAN Port
(1) 1/10G SFP+ LAN Port
(1) 1/10G SFP+ WAN Port
Ethernet In-Band
(1) Bluetooth BLE

It supports (1) RJ45 WAN Port, and (1) 1/10G SFP+ WAN Port. If you have your both of your internet providers with RJ45 Ethernet interface, all you have to do is to purchase an RJ45 to SFP adapter.

10G SFP+ RJ45 Copper Transceiver, 10GBase-T Module for Cisco SFP-10G-T-S, Ubiquiti, D- Link, Supermicro, Netgear, Mikrotik (Cat6a/7, 30-Meter)

You configure either the regular WAN or the SFP WAN as your primary internet provider, and the other as the backup. you can also configure the two WAN source as a loan balanced WAN depending on your application, and essentially BIND the traffic together to provide more band width and throughput
