Rules only need to be sent to the gateways involved. So if the change
only involves gatewat-6 then that is the only gateway you need to push
it to.

This sound smore like you push all the rules to all the gateways. You
can specify the gateway(s) on which a specific rules applies.

Only for certain VPN action is advisable or even required sometimes to
update all gateways.
