      Hi,

      I have a NG device with OpenVPN installed. All LAN traffic goes to the internet though the VPN interface using a single outbound NAT rule for the entire LAN subnet.
      I need to have one host that will route through the WAN interface rather than the VPN so i add an outboud NAT rule as follows:

      Source: Network
      IP: 192.168.1.200 (the host IP)
      Mask: 32
      Destination: Any
      Interface: WAN

      I placed the rule at the top of the outbound rule list but the host keeps going through the VPN interface.
      Is it something i'm missing or the NG just needs a reboot or anything?

      Thanks,

      Noam,

        @noamlugasi Don't you also need a firewall rule to force that client's traffic out the WAN gateway?

          @KOM No, the default rule should be fine.
