  • ZPF must be enabled in the router configuration before enabling an IOS Classic Firewall.
  • The IOS Classic Firewall and ZPF cannot be combined on a single interface.
  • IOS Classic Firewalls and ZPF models can be enabled on a router concurrently.
  • Both IOS Classic Firewall and ZPF models require ACLs to define traffic filtering policies.
  • IOS Classic Firewalls must be enabled in the router configuration before enabling ZPF.

Explanation: There are two configuration models for Cisco IOS Firewalls, IOS Classic Firewalls and zone-based policy firewalls (ZPF). Both configuration models can be enabled concurrently on a router but they cannot be combined on a single interface. One benefit of using ZPF is that ZPF is not dependent on ACLs.
