+Firewall Integration
+--------------------
+
+SDN integrates with the Proxmox VE firewall by automatically generating IPSets
+which can then be referenced in the source / destination fields of firewall
+rules. This happens automatically for VNets and IPAM entries.
+
+VNets and Subnets
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The firewall automatically generates the following IPSets in the SDN scope for
+every VNet:
+
+`vnet-all`::
+  Contains the CIDRs of all subnets in a VNet
+`vnet-gateway`::
+  Contains the IPs of the gateways of all subnets in a VNet
+`vnet-no-gateway`::
+  Contains the CIDRs of all subnets in a VNet, but excludes the gateways
+`vnet-dhcp`::
+  Contains all DHCP ranges configured in the subnets in a VNet
+
+When making changes to your configuration, the IPSets update automatically, so
+you do not have to update your firewall rules when changing the configuration of
+your Subnets.
+
+Simple Zone Example
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Assuming the configuration below for a VNet and its contained subnets:
+
+----
+# /etc/pve/sdn/vnets.cfg
+
+vnet: vnet0
+        zone simple
+
+# /etc/pve/sdn/subnets.cfg
+
+subnet: simple-192.0.2.0-24
+        vnet vnet0
+        dhcp-range start-address=192.0.2.100,end-address=192.0.2.199
+        gateway 192.0.2.1
+
+subnet: simple-2001:db8::-64
+        vnet vnet0
+        dhcp-range start-address=2001:db8::1000,end-address=2001:db8::1999
+        gateway 2001:db8::1
+----
+
+In this example we configured an IPv4 subnet in the VNet `vnet0`, with
+'192.0.2.0/24' as its IP Range, '192.0.2.1' as the gateway and the DHCP range is
+'192.0.2.100' - '192.0.2.199'.
+
+Additionally we configured an IPv6 subnet with '2001:db8::/64' as the IP range,
+'2001:db8::1' as the gateway and a DHCP range of '2001:db8::1000' -
+'2001:db8::1999'.
+
+The respective auto-generated IPsets for vnet0 would then contain the following
+elements:
+
+`vnet0-all`::
+* '192.0.2.0/24'
+* '2001:db8::/64'
+`vnet0-gateway`::
+* '192.0.2.1'
+* '2001:db8::1'
+`vnet0-no-gateway`::
+* '192.0.2.0/24'
+* '2001:db8::/64'
+* '!192.0.2.1'
+* '!2001:db8::1'
+`vnet0-dhcp`::
+* '192.0.2.100 - 192.0.2.199'
+* '2001:db8::1000 - 2001:db8::1999'
+
+IPAM
+~~~~
+
+If you are using the built-in PVE IPAM, then the firewall automatically
+generates an IPset for every guest that has entries in the IPAM. The respective
+IPset for a guest with ID 100 would be `guest-ipam-100`. It contains all IP
+addresses from all IPAM entries. So if guest 100 is member of multiple VNets,
+then the IPset would contain the IPs from *all* VNets.
+
+When entries get added / updated / deleted, then the respective IPSets will be
+updated accordingly.
+
+WARNING: When removing all entries for a guest and there are firewall rules
+still referencing the auto-generated IPSet then the firewall will fail to update
+the ruleset, since it references a non-existing IPSet.
