        @ahmedelsayed10499 Are you looking for policy routing? (routing by firewall rules, which can have a schedule)

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          @steveits I have installed a cron tool. I want to use it in a certain line of the merge at a certain time on the network. What is the matter?

              Don't use Cron use scheduled rules:
              https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/firewall/time-based-rules.html

              You two rules with different schedules. Add the required gateway(s) to each one.
