Exclude Gateway from load balance

Hi,

In UTM appliance, we configure weight 0 to exclude the WAN interface participation in Uplink management. Meanwhile, in XG you have to configure WAN as a backup gateway to exclude it from participating in Load Balance. Interestingly, you can still configure a Firewall Rule and select the backup link as primary gateway to route service specific internet traffic.

Thanks

if i use it as  a backup link , that means it will work once my primary link goes down . right ?

i don't want that , i want it to be fully exclude it because i want it fully free all the time just for VPN and VOIP for example

even if all other links goes down

Hi , 

            You  could select manual in the option Activate this Gateway. So that gateway wont be used unless you declare it as up manually. Hope it helps.
