I am still confusing on the zone level in smartfox, let's say there are different server in a MMO game, then the different server means different zone in the server or I just create a zone and add different room in the zone?

Under the SmartFoxServer API a Zone represents an Application, running in the server.
Sometimes multiple Zones can also be used for the same app/game depending on how complex it is.

For a lot more details on server architecture for large systems (MMOs etc...) please take a look at these whitepapers:
