• Bridge interfaces create a software connection between Ethernet or VLAN interfaces at
the layer-2 (data link, MAC address) level. Then, you can configure the IP address and
subnet mask of the bridge. It is also possible to configure zone-level security between the
member interfaces in the bridge.
• Virtual interfaces increase the amount of routing information in the ZyWALL. There are
three types: virtual Ethernet interfaces (also known as IP alias), virtual VLAN
interfaces, and virtual bridge interfaces.
• The auxiliary interface, along with an external modem, provides an interface the
ZyWALL can use to dial out. This interface can be used as a backup WAN interface, for
example. The auxiliary interface controls the AUX port.
