LAN vs. WAN port sync on MBG in Server and Gateway mode

I have an MBG in use as a SIP proxy for SIP Trunking

Before I enabled the WAN port, I was successfully syncing with Mitel

The WAN port is connected to a SIP trunking port from the Telco (Not Internet)

With the WAN port now enabled, my syncing is failing (no surprise really)

Is there a way to force the sync to occur on the LAN port?

you can try pinging sync.mitel-amc.com
put the result in the local networks on the MBG with subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 and gateway their internet gateway.

seems sloppy, but this should tell the MBG to use their internet gateway to contact amc
 
Nope, Nice try.

sync.mitel-amc.com resolves to 216.191.234.91

Added to local networks, no joy

What happens when you traceroute, I tried lowradiation's suggestion and it followed the LAN gateway not the WAN eth.

You could also manually add the route using "route add -host 216.191.234.91 gw xxx" where xxx is the ip address of the local gateway.
This will not survive a reboot.

The local network routes are stored in '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethx' this is an automatically generated file.
