Hi Nidhia, You should go ahead and test it. Did you test it and it did not work as you expect?
Personally, I cannot see any reasons why it should not work, but you need to test it yourself. I am assuming that pipelines 4, 5,6 below have the passthrough type and pipeline 7 has the flow classification type.
