• The IDP and application patrol features use the IDP/AppPatrol signature files on the ZyWALL. IDP 

detects malicious or suspicious packets and responds immediately. Application patrol 
conveniently manages the use of various applications on the network. After the service is 
activated, the ZyWALL can download the up-to-date signature files from the update server 
(

http://myupdate.zywall.zyxel.com

).

• SSL VPN tunnels provide secure network access to remote users. You can purchase and enter a 

license key to have the ZyWALL use more SSL VPN tunnels.

• The content filter allows or blocks access to web sites. Subscribe to category-based content 

filtering to block access to categories of web sites based on content. Your ZyWALL accesses an 
external database that has millions of web sites categorized based on content. You can have the 
ZyWALL block, block and/or log access to web sites based on these categories.

• You will get automatic e-mail notification of new signature releases from mySecurityZone after 

you activate the IDP/AppPatrol service. You can also check for new signatures at

See the respective chapters for more information about these features.
