Hi,
I'm currently setting up my "C9200-24PXG-E (Essential License)" in our office.
My target/goal is to use this L3 switch and control the exit to the WAN, by isolating the default gateway for each VLAN.
For example:
I have done the following already:
For better understanding, please see attached image
I assumed that both gateways will be used.
But the problem seems that only one gateway is being used.
I.E. All of the devices connected through the L3 switch only exits through WAN1. WAN2 is never used.
Can someone help me understand and guide me through on how to attain my goal/target?
Thank you.

If the routing only adding to use only WAN Router - will not use WAN 2 Router.
If you have Layer 3 SVI configured on Cat 9200, you need to make statick route entry pointing to respected WAN Router
Example :
IP route 192.168.111.xxx x.x.x.x.x WAN Router1 IP
IP route 192.168.222.xxx x.x.x.x.x WAN Router2 IP
or
Other method making Layer 2 - So router can take care of gateway i am sure you looking Layer 3 switch as Switch need to Route the packets.
- Still have difficulties, please post Cat 9200 and Router configuration to suggest and tweak better.

Thank you for the reply @balaji.bandi
But I think there is some misunderstanding with what I want to achieve.
What I want to know is the setting for the default route to achieve the following.
Note: In the above example, IP "192.168.111.xxx" and "192.168.222.xxx" are given/allocated from the L3 switch.
And regarding about the method making Layer 2, I think it is not what I want to achieve.
If you have any more information/advice about this, I hope that you can share it to me.
