Intra-zone traffic is traffic between interfaces or VPN tunnels in the same zone. For example,
in

each zone, you can either allow or prohibit all intra-zone traffic. For example, in
page
241, you might allow intra-zone traffic in the LAN2 zone but prohibit it in the WAN
zone. You can also set up firewall rules to control intra-zone traffic (for example, LAN2-to-
LAN2), but many other types of zone-based security and policy settings do not affect intra-
zone traffic.
Inter-zone traffic is traffic between interfaces or VPN tunnels in different zones. For example,
in
Figure 157 on page
is the normal case when zone-based security and policy settings apply.
Extra-zone traffic is traffic to or from any interface or VPN tunnel that is not assigned to a
zone. For example, in
traffic. Some zone-based security and policy settings may apply to extra-zone traffic,
especially if you can set the zone attribute in them to Any or All. See the specific feature for
more information.
