From, To

This is the direction of travel of packets to which an IDP profile is

 

bound. Traffic direction is defined by the zone the traffic is coming

 

from and the zone the traffic is going to.

 

Note: Depending on your network topology and traffic load,

 

binding every packet direction to an IDP profile may affect

 

the ZyWALL’s performance.

 

Use the From field to specify the zone from which the traffic is

 

coming. Use the To field to specify the zone to which the traffic is

 

going.

 

From LAN1 To LAN1 means packets traveling from a computer on

 

one LAN1 subnet to a computer on another LAN subnet via the

 

ZyWALL’s LAN1 zone interfaces. The ZyWALL does not check packets

 

traveling from a LAN1 computer to another LAN1 computer on the

 

same subnet.

 

From WAN To WAN means packets that come in from the WAN

 

zone and the ZyWALL routes back out through the WAN zone.

 

 

IDP Profile

This field shows which IDP profile is bound to which traffic direction.

 

Select an IDP profile to apply to the entry’s traffic direction.

 

Configure the IDP profiles in the IDP profile screens.
