API Reference: Implementing Network Segmentation with Firewall Zones

Zone Trust Levels

Zone Trust Level Typical VLANs Default Policy
Internet 0 (Untrusted) N/A Deny all inbound
DMZ 1 (Low) 10-19 Permit specific inbound services
Guest 1 (Low) 50-59 Internet-only, deny internal
Corporate 3 (Medium) 100-199 Permit outbound, restricted inbound
Server/DC 4 (High) 200-299 Strict ACL, limited admin
PCI CDE 5 (Critical) 300-309 PCI DSS compliant isolation
Management 5 (Critical) 900-909 Jump box only
OT/SCADA 5 (Critical) 400-409 Air-gapped or strictly firewalled

Palo Alto Zone-Based CLI

# Create security zone
set network zone trust network layer3 ethernet1/2
set network zone untrust network layer3 ethernet1/1
set network zone dmz network layer3 ethernet1/3

# Inter-zone security policy
set rulebase security rules Allow-Corp-to-DMZ from trust to dmz \
  application web-browsing action allow log-end yes

# Default deny rule
set rulebase security rules Deny-All from any to any application any action deny log-start yes

Cisco ASA Zone Commands

# Define nameif and security level
interface GigabitEthernet0/0
  nameif outside
  security-level 0
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
  nameif inside
  security-level 100
interface GigabitEthernet0/2
  nameif dmz
  security-level 50

# ACL for inter-zone traffic
access-list OUTSIDE_IN extended permit tcp any host 192.168.10.5 eq 443
access-group OUTSIDE_IN in interface outside

PCI DSS Segmentation Requirements

Requirement Control
Req 1.2 Restrict connections between untrusted and CDE
Req 1.3 Prohibit direct public access to CDE
Req 1.4 Personal firewall on portable devices
Req 11.3.4 Penetration testing validates segmentation

VLAN Trunking (802.1Q)

# Cisco switch VLAN configuration
vlan 100
  name Corporate
vlan 200
  name Servers
vlan 300
  name PCI_CDE

interface GigabitEthernet0/1
  switchport mode trunk
  switchport trunk allowed vlan 100,200,300
