      After the configuration of Gateway Groups how to configure NAT ?

      I have two WAN connections and one LAN connection under NAT.

      I have configured gateways groups for load balancing but pfsense 1.3 ALPHA ALPHA use only the WAN interface and not the WAN2(OPT1) interface.

      Hot to configure it ?  ???

        Essentially, it's as follows:

        • Create manual outbound NAT rules from each private network to each public network, respectively

        • Add load balancer pools for each multi-WAN variation you want. In my case, I have one where both are round-robin, another where WAN1 fails to WAN2, and a 3rd where WAN2 fails to WAN1

        • Add outbound firewall rules for your local segment(s), choosing the appropriate gateway to be sent out (e.g. Round Robin, WAN1->WAN2, or WAN2->WAN1).

        If that's not quite specific enough, have a look at the multi-WAN wiki entry: http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/MultiWanVersion1.2
