This chapter gives an overview of the ZyWALL. It explains the front panel ports,
LEDs, introduces the management methods, and lists different ways to start or
stop the ZyWALL.
1.1 Overview and Key Default Settings
The ZyWALL is a comprehensive security device designed for medium to large
organizations. Its flexible configuration helps network administrators set up the
network and enforce security policies efficiently. In addition, the ZyWALL provides
excellent throughput, making it an ideal solution for reliable, secure service.
The ZyWALL’s security features include VPN, firewall, anti-virus, content filtering,
IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention), ADP (Anomaly Detection and
Protection), and certificates. It also provides bandwidth management, Instant
Messaging (IM) and Peer to Peer (P2P) control, NAT, port forwarding, policy
routing, DHCP server and many other powerful features. Flexible configuration
helps you set up the network and enforce security policies efficiently. See Chapter
2 on page 39 for a more detailed overview of the ZyWALL’s features.
The front panel physical Gigabit Ethernet ports (labeled P1, P2, P3, and so on)
are mapped to Gigabit Ethernet (ge) interfaces. By default P1 is mapped to ge1, P2 is mapped to ge2 and so on. By default ge1 is the LAN interface, ge2 and ge3
are combined as the WAN_TRUNK. The Ethernet management interface can only
be accessed from the LAN side by default. The default LAN IP address is
192.168.1.1; the default administrator login user name and password are “admin”
and “1234” respectively. P7 and P8 are GbE dual personality interfaces. A dual
personality interface includes one Gigabit port and one slot for a mini-GBIC
transceiver (SFP module) with one port active at a time.
ZyWALL USG 2000 User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introducing the ZyWALL
1.2 Front Panel
Figure 1 ZyWALL USG 2000 Front Panel
1.2.1 Dual Personality Interfaces
The ZyWALL’ s dual personality interfaces are 1000Base-T/mini-GBIC combo ports.
For each interface you can connect either to the 1000Base- T port or the mini-GBIC
port. The mini-GBIC ports have priority over the 1000Base-T ports. This means
that if a mini-GBIC port and the corresponding 1000Base-T port are connected at
the same time, the 1000Base-T port will be disabled.
1.2.1.1 1000Base-T Ports
The 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports support 100/
1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet so the speed can be 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The
duplex mode can be both half or full duplex at 100 Mbps and full duplex only at
1000 Mbps.
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed
(100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected
device.
An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straightthrough or crossover Ethernet cable.
Default Ethernet Settings
The factory default negotiation settings for the Ethernet ports on the ZyWALL are:
• Speed: Auto
•Duplex: Auto
• Flow control: On (you cannot configure the flow control setting, but the Z yW ALL
can negotiate with the peer and turn it off if needed)
1.2.1.2 Mini-GBIC Slots
These are slots for Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers. A transceiver
is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. Use a transceiver to

connect a fiber-optic cable to the ZyWALL. The ZyWALL does not come with
transceivers. You must use transceivers that comply with the Small Form-Factor
Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF
committee’s INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.
You can change t ransceivers while the ZyWALL is operating. You can use different
transceivers to connect to devices with different types of fiber-optic connectors.
• Type: SFP connection interface
• Connection speed: 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps)
To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiberoptic module’s connectors or fiber-optic cable.

CHAPTER 2
Features and Applications
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the ZyWALL.
2.1 Features
The ZyWALL’s security features include VPN, firewall, anti-virus, content filtering,
IDP (Intrusion Detection and Prevention), ADP (Anomaly Detection and
Protection), and certificates. It also provides bandwidth management, NAT, port
forwarding, policy routing, DHCP server and many other powerful features.
The rest of this section provides more information about the features of the
ZyWALL.
High Availability
To ensure the ZyWALL provides reliable, secure Internet access, set up one or
more of the following:
• Multiple WAN ports and configure load balancing between these ports.
• An auxiliary (backup) Internet connection.
• A backup ZyWALL in the event the master ZyWALL fails (device HA).
Virtual Private Networks (VPN)
Use IPSec, SSL, or L2TP VPN to provide secure communication between two sites
over the Internet or any insecure network that uses TCP/IP for communication.
The ZyWALL also offers hub-and-spoke IPSec VPN.
Flexible Security Zones
Many security settings are made by zone, not by interface, port, or network. As a
result, it is much simpler to set up and to change security settings in the ZyWALL.
You can create or remove zones, and you can assign each network, VLAN, or
interface to any zone.
ZyWALL USG 2000 User’s Guide
39
Chapter 2 Features and Applications
Firewall
The ZyWALL’ s firew all is a stateful inspection firew all. The Z yWALL rest ricts access
by screening data packets against defined access rules. It can also inspect
sessions. For example, traffic from one zone is not allowed unless it is ini tiated by
a computer in another zone first.
Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP)
IDP (Intrusion Detection and Protection) can detect malicious or suspicious
packets and respond instantaneously. It detects pattern-based attacks in order to
protect against network-based intrusions. See Section 30.6.1 on page 501 for a
list of attacks that the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own
custom IDP rules.
Anomaly Detection and Prevention (ADP)
ADP (Anomaly Detection and Prevention) can detect malicious or suspicious
packets and respond instantaneously. It can detect:
• Anomalies based on violations of protocol standards (RFCs – Requests for
Comments)
• Abnormal flows such as port scans.
The ZyWALL’s ADP protects against network-based intrusions. See Section 31.3.4
on page 529 and Section 31.3.5 on page 532 for more on the kinds of attacks that
the ZyWALL can protect against. You can also create your own custom ADP rules.
Bandwidth Management
Bandwidth management allows you to allocate network resources according to
defined policies. This policy-based bandwidth allocation helps your network to
better handle applications such as Internet access, e-mail, Voice-over-IP (VoIP),
video conferencing and other business-critical applications.
Content Filter
Content filtering allows schools and businesses to create and enforce Internet
access policies tailored to the needs of the organization.
You can also subscribe to category-based content filtering that allows your
ZyWALL to check web sites against an external database of dynamically-updated
ratings of millions of web sites. You then simply select categories to block or
monitor, such as pornography or racial intolerance, from a pre-defined list.
40
ZyWALL USG 2000 User’s Guide
Chapter 2 Features and Applications
Anti-Virus Scanner
With the anti-virus packet scanner, your ZyWALL scans files transmitting through
the enabled interfaces into the network. The ZyWALL helps stop threats at the
network edge before they reach the local host computers.
Anti-Spam
The anti-spam feature can mark or discard spam. Use the white list to identify
legitimate e-mail. Use the black list to identify spam e-mail. The ZyWALL can also
check e-mail against a DNS black list (DNSBL) of IP addresses of servers that are
suspected of being used by spammers.
Application Patrol
Application patrol (App. Patrol) manages instant messenger (IM), peer-to-peer
(P2P) applications like MSN and BitTorrent. You can even control the use of a
particular application’s individual features (like text messaging, voice, video
conferencing, and file transfers). Application patrol has powerful bandwidth
management including traffic prioritization to enhance the performance of delaysensitive applications like voice and video. You can also use an option that gives
SIP priority over all other traffic. This maximizes SIP traffic throughput for
improved VoIP call sound quality.
2.2 Packet Flow

2.3 Applications
These are some example applications for your ZyWALL. See also Chapter 6 on
page 119 for configuration tutorial examples.
2.3.1 VPN Connectivity
Set up VPN tunnels with other companies, branch offices, telecommuters, and
business travelers to provide secure access to your network. You can also set up
additional connections to the Internet to provide better service.
Figure 9 Applications: VPN Connectivity
Chapter 2 Features and Applications
2.3.2 SSL VPN Network Access
You can configure the ZyWALL to provide SSL VPN network access to remote
users. There are two SSL VPN network access modes: reverse proxy and full
tunnel.
2.3.2.1 Reverse Proxy Mode
In reverse proxy mode, the ZyWALL is a proxy that acts on behalf of the local
network servers (such as your web and mail servers). As the final destination, the
ZyWALL appears to be the serv er to remote users. This provides an added layer of
protection for your internal servers.
ZyWALL USG 2000 User’s Guide
43
Chapter 2 Features and Applications
With reverse proxy mode, remote users can easily access any web-based
applications on the local network by clicking on links or entering the provided URL.
You do not have to install additional client software on the remote user computers
for access.
Figure 10 Network Access Mode: Reverse Proxy
2.3.2.2 Full Tunnel Mode
In full tunnel mode, a virtual connection is created for remote users with private
IP addresses in the same subnet as the local network. This allows them to access
network resources in the same way as if they were part of the internal network.

Wizard Setup
This chapter provides information on configuring the Wizard setup screens in the
web configurator. See the feature-specific chapters in this User’s Guide for
background information.
4.1 Wizard Setup Overview
Note: Use the wizards only for initial configuration starting from the default
configuration.
The web configurator's setup wizards help you configure Internet and VPN
connection settings.
Note: Changes you make in an installation or VPN wizard may not be applied if you
have already changed the ZyWALL’s configuration.
In the ZyWALL web configurator, click the Wizard icon to open the Wizard
Setup Welcome screen. The following summarizes the wizards you can select:
• INSTALLATION SETUP, ONE ISP
Click this link to open a wizard to set up a single Internet connection for Gigabit
Ethernet port 2. This wizard creates matching ISP account settings in the
ZyWALL if you use PPPoE or PPTP. See Section 4.2 on page 60.
• INSTALLATION SETUP, TWO ISP
Click this link to open a wizard to set up Internet connections for Gigabit
Ethernet (ge) interfaces 2 and 3. See Section 4.5 on page 80. You can connect
one interface to one ISP (or network) and connect the other to a second ISP (or
network). You can use the second WAN connection for load balancing to
increase overall network throughput or as a backup to enhance network
reliability (see Load Balancing Algorithms on page 241 for more on load
balancing).
This wizard creates matching ISP account settings in the ZyWALL if you use
PPPoE or PPTP. This wizard also creates a WAN trunk.

The DES encryption algorithm uses a 56-bit key. Triple DES (3DES) is a
variation on DES that uses a 168-bit key. As a result, 3DES is more
secure than DES. It also requires more processing power, resulting in
increased latency and decreased throughput. AES128 uses a 128-bit key

Phases: IKE (Internet Key Exchange) negotiation has two phases. A phase 1
