THE NETSCREEN-5XP INTERFACES
Each NetScreen-5XP device provides Ethernet interfaces for access and connectivity. In
addition, there are logical (non-physical) interfaces that perform special Layer-2 or
management functions.
The configurable interfaces available on a NetScreen-5XP device are as follows:
Interface Type Description
Ethernet interfaces These interfaces are denoted by a physical port on the module although each
interface is bound to a security zone by default.
• Trusted Bound to the Trust zone by default. Connect this interface using a
twisted pair cable with RJ-45 connectors.
• Untrusted Bound to the Untrust zone by default. Connect this interface
using a twisted pair cable with RJ-45 connectors.
Layer-2 interfaces vlan1 specifies a logical interface used for management and for VPN traffic
termination while the NetScreen device is in Transparent mode.
Tunnel interfaces untrust-tun specifies a logical tunnel interface. This interface is for VPN
traffic.
