Wifi Zones - simple question

adrianBromley

Hi All,

Is a bridged-to-LAN  WiFi network considered to be in the LAN zone or WIFI zone, for firewall rules purposes?

Thanks

Adrian

    Hi Adrian, 

    It’s considered as a LAN Zone as long as the Port it's bridged to is in the LAN. If the AP connects to Port 3 and if Port 3 is defined as DMZ then the AP will fall into DMZ zone.

    Bridged -to-LAN is just a terminology indicating that the AP will be bridged to the interface. 

    WiFi zone is basically considered when you configure AP as a separate zone. :) 

    Hope this helps
