From: Marc Chamberlin via openSUSE Users <users@lists.opensuse.org> Date: Sun, 09 Jul 2023 22:48:31 -0000 Bob, Ken, again thanks for your thoughts and input. Ok, so as Shakespeare put is so elegantly, "What's in a name..." Let's stop using the term DMZ for the name of my second zone, and use "InternalDirectFromToExternal" ;-} I know how to create this zone name. All I did really was to use "DMZ" because it was already available and seemed closest to what I am trying to accomplish. Sorry for the confusion.... Marc... OK, so now you've renamed the zone for what it does (though a simpler, more rose-like, name might have served better). But I think we're all still a bit unclear on what you hope to accomplish by having a separate network for external traffic. If this traffic all goes to the same hosts anyway, what difference does it make? In terms of security, or ease of configuration, or anything else? -- Bob
