32.9 Configuring Device Mode (Bridge)

Click MAINTENANCE > Device Mode to open the following screen. Use this screen to
configure your ZyWALL as a router or a bridge.
In bridge mode, the ZyWALL functions as a transparent firewall (also known as a bridge
firewall). The ZyWALL bridges traffic traveling between the ZyWALL's interfaces and still
filters and inspects packets. You do not need to change the configuration of your existing
network.
