WAN failover scenario.

I have two wan connections.  Both are consumer connections using DHCP.

I would like to send all the traffic from one of my lan subnets out wan2 and the rest out of wan1.

If either wan link fails, I would like all traffic to be routed over the remaining connection regardless of source.

Setting up wan failover seems straightforward from reading but I am not sure I see an easy way to achieve the other goal.

Any advice would be appreciated.

how to you distinguish
"my lan subnets" and "the rest"

typically you would set a wan group with wan1 tier1 and wan 2 teir 2 as WANmulti_rest
create or edit the default allow all, to use WANmulti_rest as gateway
create a rule above that for the "my lan subnets" for gateway wan2

are you on multiple lan? or just 1?
