### Default Fields

The default rule uses the following matching logic:
(`domain` || `domain_suffix` || `domain_keyword` || `domain_regex` || `geosite` || `geoip` || `ip_cidr` || `ip_is_private`) &&
(`port` || `port_range`) &&
(`source_geoip` || `source_ip_cidr` || `source_ip_is_private`) &&
(`source_port` || `source_port_range`) &&
`other fields`

Additionally, included rule-sets can be considered merged rather than as a single rule sub-item.
