Use schedules to set up one-time and recurring schedules for policy routes, firewall rules,
application patrol, and content filtering.
28.1 Schedule Overview
The ZyWALL supports two types of schedules: one-time and recurring. 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.
Schedules are based on the current date and time in the ZyWALL.
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 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.
