“Configuring Routing for IP Interfaces” on page 150

Manage Security Zones for IP Interfaces

Security Zones can be configured to control traffic across the network. Each security zone is associated with an IP interface.

The IP Interfaces page lists the zones that are assigned to each interface. Layer 2 Firewalling and IPS Filtering can be applied between any two security zones even if they are on the same IP interface.

You can manage (add or remove) the Security Zone configuration for an IP interface from the Edit/ Create IP Interface page.
