Hello,

We have 2 ISPs,  one is connected to us over ethernet and is not in any
gateway group,  the other ISP is over 3 DSL modems which i have configured
into a gateway group.   I have created a policy route under the firewall
rules section.  it is using an alias for the destination,  the alias is a
list of networks.  This policy-route states 'if any traffic is heading to
any of the networks defined in the alias,  use the DSL gateway group.  all
other traffic goes down the ethernet gateway.

this works as expected from any host on the inside network,  but not from
the firewall itself.    typically this wouldn't be a problem but because i
am using the squid proxy service on the box,   all http traffic from squid
appears to be 'by passing' the rule and using the wrong gateway.

I made the policy-route rule a floating one and it worked from inside
perfectly.     after seeing the above issue,  i applied it also to the
external and internal interface without any change in behavior.  I clear
the states each attempt.


any idea what I might do to have the box itself obey the policy route on
any locally generated traffic?


Running version 2.0-REL.
