Automatically Disabling Download on Multi Wan failover

Hello

I have a multi wan router with a cellular backup and I do not want sabnzbd to download when failover cellular is active. I know this could be blocked on the multi wan router, but because of a specific requirement the sabnzbd is natted and this is not trivial to do.

Essentially what I would like to do from sabnzbd is automatically disable downloading if the public IP address changes to a certain public IP subnet. Is this possible to do within sabnzbd?

Thanks in advance

You can with an external script (python, or shell script with two curl commands) and SABnzbd, but not within SAB only.

But, on the WAN interface towards cellular, can't you just block outging NNTP and NNTPS traffic (ports 119 and 563)?
