<title>Description</title>
<para>The /etc/shorewall/zones file declares your network zones. You
specify the hosts in each zone through entries in
<filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> or
<filename>/etc/shorewall/hosts</filename>.</para>
<warning>
<para>The format of this file changed in Shorewall 3.0.0. You can
continue to use your old records provided that you set IPSECFILE=ipsec
in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This will signal Shorewall that the
IPSEC-related zone options are still specified in /etc/shorewall/ipsec
rather than in this file.</para>
<para>To use records in the format described below, you must have
IPSECFILE=zones specified in
<filename>/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf</filename> AND YOU MUST NOT SET
THE 'FW' VARIABLE IN THAT FILE.</para>
</warning>
<para>The columns in the file are as follows.</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">ZONE</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Short name of the zone. The names "all" and "none" are
reserved and may not be used as zone names. The maximum length of a
zone name is determined by the setting of the LOGFORMAT option in
shorewall.conf. With the default LOGFORMAT, zone names can be at
most 5 characters long.</para>
<para>Where a zone is nested in one or more other zones, you may
follow the (sub)zone name by ":" and a comma-separated list of the
parent zones. The parent zones must have been defined in earlier
records in this file.</para>
<para>Example:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE TYPE OPTIONS IN OPTIONS OUT OPTIONS
a ipv4
b ipv4
c:a,b ipv4</programlisting>
<para>Currently, Shorewall uses this information to reorder the zone
list so that parent zones appear after their subzones in the list.
The IMPLICIT_CONTINUE option in shorewall.conf can also create
implicit CONTINUE policies to/from the subzone.</para>
<para>In the future, Shorewall may make additional use of nesting
information.</para>

<listitem>
<para>This is the standard Shorewall zone type and is the
default if you leave this column empty or if you enter "-" in
the column. Communication with some zone hosts may be
encrypted. Encrypted hosts are designated using the
'ipsec'option in /etc/shorewall/hosts.</para>

<term><emphasis role="bold">ipsec</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Communication with all zone hosts is encrypted. Your
kernel and iptables must include policy match support.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><emphasis role="bold">fw</emphasis></term>
<listitem>
<para>Designates the firewall itself. You must have exactly
one 'firewall' zone. No options are permitted with a
'firewall' zone. The name that you enter in the ZONE column
will be stored in the shell variable $FW which you may use in
other configuration files to designate the firewall
zone.</para>
