Zone Members: Nested Zones

A Zone can be a member of another Zone. This allows you to arrange Zones in a parent/child hierarchy.

If a Zone contains no rules but only members, the Zone applies if the user logs on at a computer for which at least one of the member Zones is accessible.

If a Zone contains rules as well as members, the Zone applies if the user logs on at a computer for which all the Zone rules are met.

If a Zone contains rules and it also has a parent Zone, then the Zone applies if the Zone rules are met.

Example

• Zone A (no rules, only member Zone)
  • Zone B (no rules, only member Zones)
    • Zone C (contains rules)
    • Zone D (contains rules)

In this example:

• Zone A can be accessed if Zone B can be accessed.
• Zone C can only be accessed if the rules of Zone C are met.
• Zone D can only be accessed if the rules of Zone D are met.
