Table 11.9-2: General Configuration for Firewall Zone (LAN)
Concept of zone based Firewall
A zone section groups one or more
interfaces
and serves as
s
ource
or
destination
for
forwardings
,
rules
and
redirects
. Masquerading (NAT) of
outgoing traffic is controlled on a per-zone basis. Note that masquerading is
defined on the
outgoing
interface.
INPUT rules for a zone describe what happens to traffic trying to reach the
router itself through an interface in that zone.
OUTPUT rules for a zone describe what happens to traffic originating from
the router itself going through an interface in that zone.
FORWARD rules for a zone describe what happens to traffic passing
between different interfaces in that zone.
By default, there are 2 zones which are already created in the Router, Viz LAN
Zone and WAN Zone. All traffic from LAN to WAN has no restrictions but all
incoming traffic on WAN side is blocked unless a port forwarding rule is set or
unless a particular port is opened.
