Post subject: routing traffic

Hello there,
I downloaded FS4 some weeks ago, and finally am getting a chance to test it. I have basically looked at some of the settings, but I was curious if FS was able to route traffic destined for a particular network or ip address to another gateway? For example, I don't want people to download data from a particular server located on the FS WAN interface, but I want them to access that WAN server through another gateway (which is on the same subnet as the internal nic of the FS server).
Can this be done?

Thanks.

First, you might want to use v5 to test. It contains quite a bit of new features that you might find it useful.

Regarding your problem, since you want the client to go to different gateways (FirstSpot or other router) depending on the destination sites, the only method I can think of is to insert a router between the client and FirstSpot, like:

Client -> Router A(implement routing rules based on destination site here) -> FirstSpot
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . |--------------------------------------------> Router B

(ignore the dots)
