This article describes how the virtual IP affects outbound traffic.
The virtual IP(VIP) is config to allow incoming traffic. If not config properly, it will cause outbound traffic failure.
If port1 is the primary external interface, and VIP on port2 is on top of VIP on port1, the outbound connection will fail.
Consider the below scenario:
There are two external interfaces:
port1: 10.9.10.188/20
port2: 10.0.0.1/24
Two VIPs are config:
config firewall vip
edit "VIP-Port2"
set uuid 72b1a3ea-55f2-51ef-01d3-240d9bfdfb4b
set extip 10.0.0.3 <- Port2 subnet.
set mappedip "192.168.86.3"
set extintf "any"
next
edit "VIP-port1"
set uuid 98c2d612-55f2-51ef-08ef-a52a641f52e1
set extip 10.9.10.189 <- port1 subnet
set mappedip "192.168.86.3"
set extintf "any"
next
end
The port1 is the primary external interface:
FGVM01TM23000541 # get router info routing-table all
Routing table for VRF=0
S* 0.0.0.0/0 [10/0] via 10.9.15.254, port1, [1/0]
[10/0] via 10.0.0.2, port2, [10/0]
Lan is behind port3. The test PC IP is 192.168.86.3.
The outbound traffic will NAT to the port2 IP and traffic will be sent out to port1, and then the connection fails.

Policy-1 allows traffic from port3 to port1. The source NAT in policy-1 is 'Use Outgoing Interface Address' which is 10.9.10.188.
FortiGate searches in the VIP list from top to bottom and matches the first VIP that mapping to the server 192.168.86.3. In this scenario, it matches the VIP on port2, then overrides the source NAT to port2 IP 10.0.0.3, and sends traffic to port1. The ISP of port1 drops the traffic.
