Limit WAN access based on Clients

Trying to determine if we can limit WAN access to specific clients.

We normally have a Fiber Online, but when it goes offline we have a satellite connection as backup. I would like to limit this satellite connection to a specific client IP or even a specific VLAN if possible.

You could add an outbound policy that binds certain IPs/x to a limited set of WANs, excluding the satellite connection.
Or the opposite, make the default not include the satellite connection for all IPs, and add a rule before that that includes the satellite connection for a specific IP or VLAN.
At least this is how I would approach this.

FWIW, that’s the approach I would take as well. The utility of Outbound Policies should not be underestimated.

Be sure to add a dhcp reservation if it’s not defined.
