Route all voip traffic to secondary gateway on sonicwall
I need to route all voip traffic to our secondary gateway(x2). In the event there is an issue with the X2, I would like it to use the primary gateway (x1). I am using a sonicwall tz200 with basic failover setup. Any ideas?

I have a rule like that setup currently. My concern is if that X2 goes down will traffic be able to go out X1? We conducted a test where we failed X2 and the phones could not get to X1.
