Hi fred,

 

Yes of course, In this case you can use priority group.

 

Just don't forget to set reliable monitors (transparent) in order to monitor something behind your gateway in order to be sure that your GW work fine.

 

So suppose that you have sour site1 (active) and site2 (standby)

Keep me update it it respond to your needs.
