+Zone-based Firewall Policy
+--------------------------
+
+As an alternative to applying policy to an interface directly, a zone-based
+firewall can be created to simplify configuration when multiple interfaces
+belong to the same security zone. Instead of applying to rulesets to interfaces
+they are applied to source zone-destination zone pairs.
+
+An example to zone-based firewalls can be found here: :ref:`examples-zone-policy`. \ No newline at end of file
