Change of the interface's name order in the commit

L0 Member

Hello,

 

when I verify the configuration changes on the firewall before committing them I see a line that begins with "interface [" and lists all the interface and subinterfaces that exist, but in the running config they have an order and in the candidate configuration  the names are the same but the order is different, so for example:
"interface [ A, B, C, D, E ];" became "interface [ A, B, D, E, C ];"
Does anyone knows why it happened? I can proceed with the commit or the order of the interfaces will have some impact? If yes, how can I reorder them?

Thank You 
Kind regards

Hi @giuliabaldusso ,

 

The order of interfaces in the configuration file does not affect the functionality of the firewall. The firewall processes interface configurations based on their specific attributes (e.g., zones, IP addresses, VLANs) rather than the order they appear in the configuration file.
