  • A LIF use a default firewall policy that corresponds to its role (management, cluster, or data) or a custom firewall policy created by an administrator.
  • When using a custom policy, the interface will fallback on its role's default policy for unspecified services. 
  • The firewall policy of a LIF is set to mgmt when the service policy that including these service polices:
    • management-ssh
    • management-http
    • management-https

For data LIF, including both data and management services to its service policy is not recommended configuration.
