Policy match either XFF or layer 3 IPs?

L0 Member

We have load balancers proxying traffic back through a pair of PA5250s and recently started extracting X-forwarded-for data to match in our traffic policies. Is it possible to have rules that match EITHER the XFF IP or the load balancers' proxied IPs at the same time?

 

That is to say, if the load balancer's source is 10.10.10.1 but the XFF source is extracted as 10.11.11.1, can a policy be set up to match 10.10.10.1 with the "Use X-Forwarded-For Header" setting enabled for security policies without specifically allowing 10.11.11.1? We are currently using a general zone policy to match on all our load balancer interfaces, but would it be possible to narrow the match only a specific layer 3 source and specific XFF IPs?
