Zones
15.1 Zones Overview
Set up zones to configure network security and network policies in the ZyWALL. A
zone is a group of interfaces and/or VPN tunnels. The ZyWALL uses zones instead
of interfaces in many security and policy settings, such as firewall rules, Anti-X,
and remote management.
Zones cannot overlap. Each Ethernet interface, VLAN interface, bridge interface,
PPPoE/PPTP interface and VPN tunnel can be assigned to at most one zone. Virtual
interfaces are automatically assigned to the same zone as the interface on which
they run.
