[Known Issue] [8.5.3] Firewall or Outbound Policies with Grouped Networks and Domain Rules Not Working

Ref.: #35401

Details:
After upgrading to firmware version 8.5.3, the customer reported that the Firewall and Outbound Policy using a combination of Grouped Networks together with a domain-based criterion will no longer take effect.

Example #1 - Outbound Policy: (Source = Grouped Networks | Destination = Domain Name)

Example #2 - Firewall Policy: (Source = Grouped Networks | Destination = Domain Name)

Example #3 - Grouped Networks with Domain Name classification (which will be applied to Outbound Policy or Firewall Policy)

The above are example policies that no longer take effect after upgrading to version 8.5.3. As long as the configuration involves the use of Grouped Networks together with a domain-based criterion, it will be affected by this issue.

We have prepared a special firmware (8.5.3s093) to mitigate the issue. The fix will be included in the next GA release.

Affected firmware version:
8.5.3 GA

Affected models:
All models, excluded FusionHub.

Fixed in firmware version:
8.5.3s093
