      Hi,

      I configured an OpenVPN client as Gateway. Only for specified Clients the traffic is routed over VPN. All other Clients through my default WAN.
      So far it's working like expected.

      What I now want to do is implement an 'killswitch'. So when VPN is down or not reachable, the traffic should NOT automatically routed through my default gateway.

      For this I followed this tutorial:

      https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=84463.msg463226#msg463226

      this is my config:

      My problem is, that traffic, that only should be routed through VPN, is still automatically routed through my default gateway. Even with my configuration (see screenshots).

      I also tried to set Skip rules when gateway is down. But my proble still remains.

      Is there anything I did wrong?
