You can attach or bind security zones to individual interfaces at the device-level. Bind zones to logical Layer 3 interfaces on a device and specify separate bindings for standard VPNs. You can bind security zones to the following types of interfaces.
WAN interface types with attached WAN circuit labels:
  • Layer 3 stand-alone interfaces
  • Layer 3 sub-interfaces
  • Layer 3 PPPoE interfaces
  • Layer 3 bypass pair, where the WAN member interface is available for zone binding
  • Layer 2 bypass pair, where the WAN member interface is single for zone binding
  • Loopback bypass pairs
Layer 3 Interfaces and Bypass pairs without a WAN circuit label:
  • Stand-alone Layer 3, where Used_for is LAN
  • Layer 3 bypass pair, where Used_for is LAN, and the LAN member interface is available for zone binding
  • Sub-interface Layer 3, where Used_for is LAN
  • Stand-alone, non-parent interface, where Used_for is NONE
  • Standard tunnel interface
  • Loopback bypass pairs
You cannot bind zones to the following types of interfaces:
  • Controller interfaces
  • LAN member interfaces of Layer 2 bypass pairs
  • Parent interfaces of sub-interfaces and PPPoE interfaces
If a site has both site-level bindings and device-level bindings, the two settings’ resulting configuration is united. In the event of a conflict between site-level bindings and device-level bindings, device-level bindings take precedence.
You can bind security zones to device interfaces either by selecting a security zone first and then binding it to a device interface or you can select the device interface first and then select a security zone for binding.
  • Select a security zone and bind it to a device interface(s).
