Static routing: different paths for request and response

Hi !

I'm wondering how Sophos routing works.
I'm using Sophos UTM9.
During some tests, I discovered that the host that send the request packet to sophos has to be the one sophos sends the response.

Example:
Host A sends TCP request to sophos. Sophos routes the packets. The response arrived to Sophos. Sophos should be routing this response to Host B because of the static routes. But Sophos does not do that.

Is that normal ?
Is sophos a "stateful router" ?

Thank you !

Is there a way to disable the connection tracker ?

No, but you might consider replacing Router 2 with the UTM instead of just adding the UTM to the mix.
