Chapter 6 Configuration Basics

6.5.6 Static Routes

Use static routes to tell the ZyWALL about networks not directly connected to the ZyWALL.

MENU ITEM(S) Configuration > Network > Routing > Static Route

PREREQUISITES Interfaces

6.5.7 Zones

See Section 6.2 on page 88 for background information. A zone is a group of interfaces and VPN tunnels. The ZyWALL uses zones, not interfaces, in many security settings, such as firewall rules and remote management.

Zones cannot overlap. Each 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. When you create a zone, the ZyWALL does not create any firewall rules, or configure remote management for the new zone.

MENU ITEM(S)

Configuration > Network > Zone

PREREQUISITES

Interfaces, IPSec VPN, SSL VPN

WHERE USED

Firewall, remote management, ADP

 

 

Example: For example, to create the DMZ-2 zone, click Network > Zone and then the Add icon.

6.5.8 DDNS

Dynamic DNS maps a domain name to a dynamic IP address. The ZyWALL helps maintain this mapping.

MENU ITEM(S) Configuration > Network > DDNS

PREREQUISITES Interface

6.5.9 NAT

Use Network Address Translation (NAT) to make computers on a private network behind the ZyWALL available outside the private network.

The ZyWALL only checks regular (through-ZyWALL) firewall rules for packets that are redirected by NAT, it does not check the to-ZyWALL firewall rules.
