Zones clarification

Maybe someone can help me understand.

Seems to me that zones is used for separating networks that might be the same numbers, but different locations.

This is my current setup:
Host A - Zone Default - Proxy node to 192.168.1.0
Host B - Zone H - Accessible via Host A

My question, now network 192.168.1.0 is showing in both, Zone Default and Zone H. I'm guessing that's because Host A needs to be in Zone Default.

What happens if I get another network with the same network number? If I need to have the proxy node in Zone Default, won't that cause issues?

ThanQ!

Zone proxies should also be in the zone which they belong to.
System automatically knows that if a node is set as a proxy for a zone, it will be polled directly from the server.

(make sure you are running at least 2.0.5+, since this was added only recently)
