Multipath Rules, Second Interface missing

Hey Everybody,
Today i have configured the second WAN Interface.
Our Web-Server should use WAN1 and the Clients have to use the WAN2 for Surfing, Mailing etc.
I configured the Second WAN port as Ethernet with a default a GW and set it as Standby Interface in the "Uplink balancing". Like it discribed in my Lab-Guide from the ACE Training.
The Probblem: In the Lab-Guide is the next step to set two Multipath Rules. One Rule with Interface WAN1 and a second Rule with the other interface(WAN2). But in the Rule Configuration it is not possible to select the WAN2 Interface because it is missing in the Dropdown menue.
Have anyone an idea ?

You can't create Multipath rules for Standby Interfaces, because its useless.
Standby interface are only used, if ALL active Interfaces are unavailable. In that case, there's only one interface left where all traffic is send over. So no need for any rules then.

So move the Standby Interface to the Active Interface list and you can create Multipath rules for it.

Cheers
Ulrich
