    So we have a multi-wan setup with a few local vlans. We have each VLAN with a single rule to pass traffic to the internet and the gateway is specified as a single gateway not the Gateway group. However traffic is still allowed to traverse the other gateway?!

    Are we setting up something wrong?!

    My first thought is that we need a block rule above this one that blocks traffic to that gateway, but for some reason I'm thinking I don't need that.

      Yeah, if a gateway is failing pfSense pass the traffic out to the next one by default.
      If this is not desired add a check mark at System > Advanced > Miscellaneous > Skip rules when gateway is down.
