2.4.2 Bridge Mode

The following screen displays when the ZyWALL is set to bridge mode. While 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.

The ZyWALL bridges traffic traveling between the ZyWALL's interfaces.

You can use the firewall in bridge mode (refer to the firewall chapters for details on
configuring the firewall).
