Can containment rules be configured to Asset Types or are they restricted only to the Asset Group level?

I was trying to configure some new containment rules and it appears these rules are restricted to the asset group level as i could only select all in the "from Asset Type" drop down.  Is this correct?

The dropdown is filtered based on what association roles you have set. If there aren't any association roles of type CONTAINER, then I believe you will only see ALL.

Rules in the Utility Network are configured at the Asset Group and Asset Type (ie, you must specify both).

ALL is just a special keyword which will internally make a rule for each valid asset type in the asset group (here, Electric Bay Boundary).

Thanks Paul.  What I found confusing is I didn't have an option other than ALL for this.  I would have thought the drop down would let me select an asset type.

It does seem to let me specify to an AT level when importing via CSV.
