Fetch from pfsense shell with different gateway

[tonysud]

How can I specify to fetch which gateway I want to use to download a file?
If I have three gateways, how to tell fetch which to use do download a file?

You can't policy route traffic from the firewall itself, but you can set a source address which can nudge it.

fetch --bind-address x.x.x.x https://blah

Where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the WAN you want to use, for example:

: fetch --bind-address x.x.x.x -qo - http://checkip.dyndns.org
<title>Current IP Check</title>Current IP Address: x.x.x.x
: fetch --bind-address y.y.y.y -qo - http://checkip.dyndns.org
<title>Current IP Check</title>Current IP Address: y.y.y.y

ohhhh it works!

I have tested the same command on FreeBSD and it doesn't work

is fetch of pfsense different from FreeBSD fetch or what else?

Same fetch, but our pf ruleset has some tricks with route-to that make it work.
