Predefined Zones
The predefined zones on your firewall depend on the device.
The predefined security zones on the SonicWall Security Appliance are not modifiable:
| This zone | Has this function |
| DMZ | Normally used for publicly accessible servers and can consist of one to four interfaces, depending on your network design. |
| LAN | Cn consist of multiple interfaces, depending on your network design. Even though each interface has a different network subnet attached to it, when grouped together, they can be managed as a single entity. |
| MGMT | Used for appliance management and includes only the MGMT interface. Interfaces in other zones can also be enabled for SonicOS management, but the MGMT zone/interface provides the added security of a separate zone just for management. |
| MULTICAST | Provides support for IP multicasting, which is a method for sending IN packets from a single source simultaneously to multiple hosts. |
| SSLVPN | Used for secure remote access using the SonicWall NetExtender client. |
| VPN | A virtual zone used for simplifying secure, remote connectivity. |
| WLAN |
Provides support to SonicWall SonicPoints and SonicWaves. When assigned to the Opt port, it enforces SonicPoint Enforcement, automatically dropping all packets received from non-SonicPoint devices. The WLAN zone supports:
|
| WAN | Can consist of multiple interfaces. If you are using the Security Appliance’s WAN failover capability, you need to add the second Internet interface to the WAN zone. |
Even though you can group interfaces together into one security zone, this does not preclude you from addressing a single interface within the zone.
