configuration RED

Marcos Ramirez 
hello good afternoon, I have a question about how to manage the devices red, 
we currently have 9 red15w and 1 network 50, I have seen that you can create a new zone and also talk about a bridge mode. 
what dou you recommend. I need the devices to have access to my local network and in the same way to get from the central office to the devices locally. 
clear without forgetting to apply web rules and policies just for them.
please

    hola, actualmente creo una nueva zona, he creado reglas en el firewall de la siguiente manera:
Red lan
LAN-RED
RED-WAN
RED-WIFI
en la empresa se administra un sistema, al agregar el rojo a esta zona no puedo iniciar sesión en dicho sistema. 
    pero si cambio el rojo a la zona de lan si puedo acceder, podrías ayudarme por favor

    the red ones are configured as standard / unified mode

    I cannot speak Spanish, sorry :( 

     

    But most likely this should work fine. RED will send everything from RED site to your XG. 

    XG will look for a firewall rule and send the traffic to the proper interface / client. 

     

    Be careful with Broadcast / Multicast. Those protocols will not be forwarded.

hello, currently create a new zone, I have created rules in the firewall as follows:
RED LAN
LAN-RED
RED-WAN
RED-WIFI
in the company a system is managed, when adding the red to this zone I can not initiate session in said system. 
    but if I change the red to the lan zone if I can access, you could help me please

the red ones are configured as unified standard

you could explain more about multicasting and diffusion since I am new to all this.

    First of all, you should read this KBA: 

    https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/126454

     

    It explains a lot about RED and the inner working. 

     

     

    Basically you can picture RED as a Layer 2 Interface (a Ethernet cable plugged into XG). 

    And this is how XG will process the data. 

    All limitation of a Layer 3 Routing will take place. 

    So to speak, Multicast and Broadcast are not being forwarded by XG to other interfaces.
