      Is this possible (newest pfSense version) and what is the correct setup for it?

      Thank you!

        This is only a showing a way not howto, you could find those in documentation section

        And you have not provided enough information for that ipsec. in/out directions etc..
        Create your wans as you need to do
        Create rules on LAN interface
        1st rule: from LAN subnet to other end of ipsec tunnel use ipsec gateway
        2nd rule: from LAN subnet to any use normal gateway

          Thanks for your answer!

          Here are some more informations.

          Actually I have one LAN and one WAN. All the traffic goes through WAN (we have about 20 tunnels to other locations). Now I could get a cheap VDSL WAN (50Mbit for just 50 bucks) and I want to automatically balance the traffic to use VDSL for Internet, FTP, Webradio and so on, but all the IPSec-Traffic should stay on the old WAN.

          As I understood right, I just need a second WAN and two rules? That would be great!

            That's pretty much it. But there might be some problems/work-arounds before getting there
