Hi,

We have ADSL on WAN1 (obviously), but we've just got a fibre connection into our office and have it plugged into WAN2.

How can we set our default gateway and therefore all traffic to go out via that instead of WAN1?

I've tried via telnet:

Code:
ip route status ip route del 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 default ip route add 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 OUR_GATEWAY_IP IF4 default


IF4 is as per
Code:
:0=LAN,3=WAN1,4=WAN2


doesn't work!

Changing the Load balancer policy to have WAN2 first in the list and WAN1 second makes all traffic go out.

I've confirmed this from an internal network traceroute. Routing table is still the same but it works.

Thanks.
