Yes, this is obvious in all programs of that sort.

But I meant something more specific.
In firewalls of Kerio and Sygate one can create one's own rules in which the
sorce/destination option could be bound to a specific network interface, ie.
to specific Ethernet card in a computer if it is home network internet
sharing gate.

Such an inclusion of arbitrarily chosen network adapter in user defined rules
prevents eg. the "spoofing" kind of an attack:
