source_groups

(Optional) List of Source group paths. We need paths as duplicate names may exist for groups under different domains. Along with paths we support IP Address of type IPv4 and IPv6. IP Address can be in one of the format(CIDR, IP Address, Range of IP Address). In order to specify all groups, use the constant “ANY”. This is case insensitive. If “ANY” is used, it should be the ONLY element in the group array. Error will be thrown if ANY is used in conjunction with other values. If this value is not passed, then [“ANY”] will be used by default.

destination_groups

(Optional) List of Destination group paths. We need paths as duplicate names may exist for groups under different domains. Along with paths we support IP Address of type IPv4 and IPv6. IP Address can be in one of the format(CIDR, IP Address, Range of IP Address). In order to specify all groups, use the constant “ANY”. This is case insensitive. If “ANY” is used, it should be the ONLY element in the group array. Error will be thrown if ANY is used in conjunction with other values. If this value is not passed, then [“ANY”] will be used by default.

services

(Optional) Names of services. In order to specify all services, use the constant “ANY”. This is case insensitive. If “ANY” is used, it should be the ONLY element in the services array. Error will be thrown if ANY is used in conjunction with other values. If this value is not passed, then [“ANY”] will be used by default.

sequence_number

(Optional) Sequence number of the Rule. This field is used to resolve conflicts between multiple Rules under Security or Gateway Policy for a Domain. If no sequence number is specified by the user, a value of 0 is assigned by default. If there are multiple rules with the same sequence number then their order is not deterministic. If a specific order of rules is desired, then one has to specify unique sequence numbers.

Disabled

(Optional) Flag to disable the rule. Default is false.

logged

(Optional) Enable logging flag. Flag to enable packet logging. Default is disabled.

Notes

For domain_id cgw Rule must have valid values for source, and destination: either source or destination should have valid groups
