      Hi, been breaking my head to get this working for the psat few hours
      We get multiple IPs from the ISP, I want our two servers outbound traffic to go through an alternate outbound IP. I set up a carp VIP but I dont know what to do next. I DO NOT want to do 1:1 nat because I dont want all the ports opened to the server, I dont need my servers getting hacked. Is there a way to do this?
      Thank you in advance

        You probably want firewall, NAT, Outbound. Turn on AON and create a rule with the source the IP of your server and the NAT address being the VIP you want to use. Move this before the default outbound rule. Repeat for additional servers.

          1:1 NAT does not open all ports to the server, it doesn't open anything at all by default. Your WAN firewall rules control what can be accessed.
