Schedules
38.1  Overview
Use schedules to set up one-time and recurring schedules for policy routes, firewall rules, 
application patrol, and content filtering. The ZyWALL supports one-time and recurring 
schedules. One-time schedules are effective only once, while recurring schedules usually 
repeat. Both types of schedules are based on the current date and time in the ZyWALL.

One-time Schedules
One-time schedules begin on a specific start date and time and end on a specific stop date and 
time. One-time schedules are useful for long holidays and vacation periods.
Recurring Schedules
Recurring schedules begin at a specific start time and end at a specific stop time on selected 
days of the week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday). 
Recurring schedules always begin and end in the same day. Recurring schedules are useful for 
defining the workday and off-work hours.
