For each of some private native firewall policy rules that has any of newly created private native security groups as one of source and destination, a cloud native security group (CNSG) rule object with an CNSG outbound rule object and an CNSG inbound rule object for the public cloud is created and at least one of the CNSG outbound rule object and the CNSG inbound rule object is updated so that the private native firewall policy rule can be used in the cloud network.
