Are both of these correct? Which one do I use?

1. This protocol supports unequal cost path load balancing, which is known as variance. (What does 'which' refer to?)

2. This protocol supports unequal cost path load balancing, which are known as variance. (What does this one mean compared to #1?)

Thanks.

As I read it, the "which" refers to "unequal cost path load balancing" (whatever THAT is).

I can't figure out how #2 would work because I can't find a plural noun to support the use of "are."
