IPv4/IPv6 return routes tab

When several gateways are used for load balancing, this tab will allow defining the gateway through which return packets will need to go in order to guarantee the consistence of connections.

The IPv6 Return routes tab can only be accessed if IPv6 is enabled in the firewall’s configuration.
