Re: [FW1] When is it Eitherbound?

[Matthias Leu <mleu@FW1-NOSPAMaerasec.de>]

Hi,
correct, the direction choosen in Policy/Properties/SecurityPolicy will apply to
"Gateways", e.g. Inbound.
If "Install-On" is used in a rule, the inspection will be Eitherbound.

Mixing these two options in one rulebase caused sometimes trouble to me, so now I
decide before implementing the rule-base which to use. Since a longer time now, I'm
only using Gateways OR Install-On - not mixed.
Best regards
Matthias
