That makes sense. So both assigning a public IP directly to the SSVM/CPVM and public IP backed by EIP are possible.
I could be wrong, but still think that this will be against the notion of basic networking zone. Unlike advanced mode where all zone Vlan's need to be trunked,in this case just for ensuring system VM's have public IP would need public VLAN to be trunked on to all TOR switches. > > >In Advanced mode, the public VLAN is trunked down to the hypervisors as >well as to external devices such as SRX and F5.
