1. | Only interface types 7, 10 and 24 are available for defining sub-interfaces. |
2. | A hierarchy of sub-interfaces is not permitted. |
3. | An interface and a sub-interface cannot have the same identifier. |
4. | All nodes of the specified nodes group in the sub-interface should belong to the slave nodes group of the interface. |
5. | All segments of the specified surface in the sub-interface should belong to the master surface of the interface. |
