Greetings!

Are you using the same web filter profile that one is being used with a policy that has an outgoing interface as a pppoe link in a policy where the outgoing interface is wan1?

Regards!

It I understand well your case, it seems the reason is that your clients are reaching Internet through WAN1, not through WAN2, due to your current default route configuration, because PPPoE has by default the priority as default route.

Bear in mind the best way to manage multiple interfaces is SD-WAN.

You can start here:

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.2.10/administration-guide/889544/sd-wan-quick-start

In case you don't want to use SD-WAN then you just need to configure your static default route (through WAN2) with a distance = 4 or less.

thank you for your reply

currently
the traffic is just based on wan 1 since it is configured in ippool

wan 2 is configured for RDP port forwarding

Hi @Ouams_90 ,

1) If the same web filtering profile is working at least with one firewall policy, there should be no configuration issue with the profile;

2) Even if your WAN2 interface has no Internet access, it doesn't matter. The web filtering rating is sent by FGT itself to the FortiGuard servers based on the routing table.

So you may provide the screenshot of the block message for the users got with the traffic via the WAN2 interface.

If you have some web filter raw logs for this issue, that would be much better.
