Hey,

first of all the guide for deployment is very good BUT there is an error in the Google Template so the setup won't work correctly:

- The automatically deployed firewall rules (ingress) are wrong: instead of the source tag "checkpoint-gateway" it is deployed as the target tag:

Wrong: 

Correct:

Correct:

Correction: Actually the new screen above is correct because the source of the ingress traffic is not the Check Point gateway but the real source. This should be "any" because the traffic is routed through the gateway anyway.

I wonder if nobody has ever deployed this solution or why I haven't found anything about this issue. Without this manual change you can do basically nothing. It would be nice if this can be looked at.
