You can use predefined interface objects or interface groups as a source when
defining policy rules.
Cloud Edge includes physical interface
(including wireless interfaces in Routing Mode), and virtual interfaces such as VLANS
and VPNs
(L2TP and SSL) in the list of predefined interface objects. Optionally, you can define
custom
interface groups that contain one or more of the predefined interfaces.

ImportantYou can select interface objects as a source when you have selected only a
single Cloud Edge 50G2 gateway running
Cloud Edge 6.0 or later in the
Gateway Devices section.
If you select a standard/G3 gateway
running Cloud Edge 5.x or
earlier or a gateway group containing a
standard/G3 gateway, Any-to-Any
is preselected in the Interface Objects
section, and this selection cannot be changed.
