Gateway firewall represents rules applied at the perimeter firewall.
There are predefined categories under the All Shared Rules view, where rules across all gateways are visible. Categories are evaluated from left to right, and the rules within the category are evaluated top down. The category names are assigned to the policy under which the rules are created.
