        i made 3 gateway groups

        named :

        load balancing   wan1  tier1    wan2  tier1

        failover1           wan1  tier3    wan2  tier4

        failover2           wan1  tier6    wan2  tier5

        and added that as rule to the firewall

        lan  all to all  gateway load balancing
        lan  all to all  failover1
        lan  all to all  failover2

        is that a correct way to do it ?

        load balancing works

        but dont know how to make it switch to failover.
        only the first rule works, so if i put fallover as first rule it works , if i put load balancing as first rule it works

        also tryed

        lan  all to all  gateway load balancing
        wan1  all to all  failover1
        wan2  all to all  failover2

        greetings franco
