Preparing to configure your network

●Public-backup zone. Public-backup zone is the backup interface to the primary public interface for use when Failover is configured.

●Semiprivate zone. Semiprivate zone is used for media such as wireless LAN, where the network is considered part of the protected network, but the media may be vulnerable to attack. The semi-private zone provides the additional security measure of IPSec encryption to prevent compromise to the network, for example, VPN over wireless protection.

●DMZ zone. DMZ (Demilitarized zone) is used for an area in the company network that needs to be accessible from the public networks, for example, email, FTP, and Web servers, but the area is not considered part of the internal private network. Servers in the DMZ typically have publicly routable IP addresses or should use advanced NAT within the security gateway.

●Management zone. Management zone is used to simplify network deployments, to eliminate enterprise network dependencies on switches or routers. The management network interface is usually used as an access point for a dedicated VPNmanager management station or as a dedicated interface for dumping log messages to a syslog server.
