Incoming interface
If selected, packets will be matched based on the network 
interface they have been received on. Note that this can't be 
applied to Locally generated packets as they have been gener-
ated by the unit itself.

interface they will be transmitted on. Note that this can't be

the unit itself.

Protocol
If selected, packets will be matched based on their protocol 
type. Note that if you wish to match on source or destination 
ports, the protocol must be set to TCP or UDP.
