Sophos v19 Wan Link Manager - One active Two Backups

Hi Riccardo De Lazzari 

Hope you are well and Thanks for reaching out to the community. I have moved this post from Wireless > Sophos Firewall as it is more relevant here in this section.

Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos

Hi thank you Raphael!

You are welcome! In the meantime, you can try using failover setup to achieve your use case: https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/19.0/Help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/Routing/Gateways/RoutingConfigureGatewayBalancing/index.html#configure-gateway-failover

You need to configure WAN 2 and 3 as backup and then under "Activate this gateway" make a condition that WAN2 would be activated if WAN1 fails and WAN3 would be activated if all active gateway fails.

Hope this helps. Many thanks.

Yes, I think that doing like you suggested WAN3 would take over when all active gateway fails (and we have only one active gateways, WAN1). So it would take over when WAN1 are going to be down.

Correct me if I'm wrong

Hi Riccardo, 

Yes on the condition above, when all active gateway fails (WAN1 and WAN2) only that's when WAN3 would be activated and would sit as a backup till it meets the condition. 

WAN1: Active gateway

WAN2: Backup - Activate this Gateway if WAN1 fails

WAN3: Backup - Activate this Gateway if All Gateway(WAN1 and 2) Fails

Thanks!
