Two different parent proxies

Rayan
I have two ADSL lines that require different proxies with different ports, one is like proxy.net.test ( port 8080 ) and the second one is proxy.com.loc ( port 3124 ) and implemented Interface Network Load Balancing.
When I go to HTTP/S Advanced Tab there is a possiblity to add only one parent proxy or more than one ( Group Availabilty ) with one port only. How can I assign two different proxies with two different ports for two different interfaces?

    I think you're right to use Uplink Balancing, but I'm hesitant to make any suggestions because I don't understand why you need different ports or different proxies.  Do you mean that each ISP supplies a parent proxy that you must use, and these are on different ports?  If so, I wonder if it wouldn't work to create a NAT rule like:

    Traffic Source: {port 3124 interface} (Address)
    Traffic Service: HTTP Proxy
    Traffic Destination: Internet

    NAT mode: SNAT (Source)

    Source: 
    Source Service: {Port-3124}

    Automatic packet filter rule: {Checked}


    Does that work?

    NOTE: Because you only can identify a single parent proxy, that would have to be an 'Availability Group', and that would, in essence, make the connection via the 3124-ADSL failover only.
