ZyWALL 2WG User’s Guide

The following screen displays when the ZyWALL is set to bridge mode. In bridge mode, the 
ZyWALL functions as a transparent firewall (also known as a bridge firewall). The ZyWALL 
bridges traffic traveling between the ZyWALL's interfaces and still filters and inspects 
packets. You do not need to change the configuration of your existing network.  
In bridge mode, the ZyWALL cannot get an IP address from a DHCP server. The LAN, WAN, 
DMZ and WLAN interfaces all have the same (static) IP address and subnet mask. You can 
configure the ZyWALL's IP address in order to access the ZyWALL for management. If you 
connect your computer directly to the ZyWALL, you also need to assign your computer a 
static IP address in the same subnet as the ZyWALL's IP address in order to access the 
ZyWALL. 
You can use the firewall and VPN in bridge mode. See the user’s guide for a list of other 
features that are available in bridge mode.
