Hello, 

 

I have two different Internet connection with a two different ISP. I want to use one connection for some users and another for other users, all of them in the same network, but I don't want to balance, the users that go for connection1 always should go for this connection

 

I have one default static route 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 to one of these connections but I don't know how can create the another routes because always affect all connections

 

I've tried with policy routes, but I have the same problem

 

Anyone knows how can I set in FortiGate?

 

Best regards, 

 

Josep

    dear friend,

         it not a big deal , you only need to specify the user range like ,

    you have two ISP  network on 2 different port of wan .

    so what do is that you have internal range of any series like 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254 ok

    then split the user with create object in address of half ip and create policy for that special half user .

    you will have specific IP range dedicated to 1-1 wan line .

    just you. need to be care full fro whom you want to assign  for what .

    Thank you for your answer

     

    The problem is always with default route, because in the default route I have to indicate the default gateway. Each internet connection has a different default gateway and I cannot define a different default route per user

     

    Best regards

    Depending on the version of code you are running you can setup Wan Link Load Balancing. From there you are able to set your default route to this new interface (which is made up of the two individual wans) you can then assign how you want it to do load balancing across the connections. Then you can set rules saying if source A is trying to go to dest A use WAN1 etc.

     

    If you want to source determined routing you could just do some policy based routes that say all traffic from SUBNETA go out WAN1 and all traffic from SUBNETB go out WAN2.

     

    Let me know if this helps you out or not (I write in stream of consciousness so I don't always clearly convey what I'm trying to say lol)
