Use in the case of the FW is place between machine in the same subnet ( where Zone is not need ?)
>> Layer Zone ( not Layer 3! )
>> all interface: family ethernet-switching
! Mixed-mode : l2 and L3 interface, but no IRB interface!!!
| interface @ layer | https://community.juniper.net/communities/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread?MID=72245#bm6cc37a88-cd7c-4755-9c1b-03abc1f2dcbf |
|---|---|
| transparent-mode | put physical interfaces into zones, but you would configure them with family bridge rather than with family ethernet-switching. |
| ethernet-switching mode | , then you put irb interfaces into security-zones rather than physical interfaces |
Mixed mode supports both transparent mode (Layer 2) and route mode (Layer 3); it's the default value.
