      Hi All,

      As I know, LoadBalance Gateway Group can apply to ruleset only. I have about >100 rulesets in my Lan interface. Is it any good suggestion for my case?

      Thanks.

        Point your default gateway to the gateway group.

          I tried it before. It is not working if I set it in Default gateway. Please advise.

              The default gateway group does not work with a load balance gateway group. It selects one gateway as the default, which is the active gateway with the highest priority (lowest number - 1 is higher priority than 2) tier.

              If you have > 100 pass rules on your LAN rule set and you want to point them all to a load balance gateway group, the best thing to do is get to work.
