      Description        Round Robin load balancing
      type                gateway
      Behaviour          load balancing

      monitor          wan gateway (in the guide it said dns being both  dns are the same i thought the best option would be wan1 gateway
      interface name wan

      monitor      wan2 gateway
      interface    wan2

      –----------------------------------------
      next rule

      name                WAN1FailsToWAN2
