I have an interface on my virtual UTM9 (HA pair) I use to route traffic to another device (a VMWare vShield Edge).
192.168.1.0 is behind the VSE.
192.168.185.0 is behind the UTM.
10.0.0.1 is the VSE interface ip
10.0.0.2 is the UTM interface ip
In Static Routes, I've added a Gateway route, 192.168.1.0/24, gateway 10.0.0.1.
If I try to ping 192.168.1.10 from 192.168.185.50, I get "Reply from 192.168.185.1: Destination host unreachable." 192.168.185.1 being the default gateway and UTM interface for that network.
If I add a Policy Route:
type: Gateway
source int: >
source net: 192.168.185.0
service: any
dest: 192.168.1.0
gateway: 10.0.0.1
It works fine! To me, those are the exact same route, just one being more complicated than the other.
It's more of a PITA, but I could build a bunch of policy routes. But I'm baffled as to why regular static routes wouldn't work.
