1. Select "Use Destination Interface Address".

2. Check "Fixed Port".

3. Save. <------ This step is mandatory

4. Edit policy, select "Dynamic IP Pool" and choose an IP Pool.

5. Save.


In GUI, edit the FW policy and select
"Use Destination Interface Address" and "Fixed port", then SAVE


--> SAVE

Then, select "dynamic Ip Pool" and poolname.
The option "Fixed port" is in grey but will remain selected.


Save and install the policy.
