Usage Guidelines

There are four reserved security zones on AntiDDoS:

  • Untrust zone

    It is a low-level security zone, whose priority is 5.

  • Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)

    It is a medium level security zone, whose priority is 50.

  • Trust zone

    It is a high-level security zone, whose priority is 85.

  • Local zone

    It is a highest-level security zone, whose priority is 100.

You do not need to create the four zones above. At the same time, deleting and re-setting the security level is prohibited.

Keyword name is used only when you create or delete a zone. You are not required to set the keyword when entering a zone view.

Once a security zone is deleted, all the configurations of the zone is deleted as well.

Example

# Create a security zone "userzone" and enter the zone view.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] firewall zone name userzone
[sysname-zone-userzone]

# Enter the Trust zone view.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] firewall zone trust
[sysname-zone-trust]
