networks, so that a computer in one location can communicate with computers in other
locations.
The ZyWALL has a multiple WAN feature which enables you to have a wired WAN
connection and a 3G (WAN) connection. You can configure the distribution of traffic on the
WAN connections using the load balancing settings. The following figure shows a wired WAN
