Vigorous Intensity Heart Rate Zone

According to Garmin's heart rate zone default percentages does Vigorous Intensity Minutes start at heart rate zone 3 or zone 4?

Also, is Moderate Intensity HR zone 2?

I ve been trying to figure out the same.

I only got my watch 2 days ago.

Today I was in Zone 1 for 25mins and Zone 2 for 5 mins (during the same walk)

It gave me my first 30 moderate intensity minutes.

So now I must figure out which zone is Vigorous. My guess is zone 2 since when I click to set intensity minutes by HR and not auto, the defaults are zone 1 for moderate and zone 2 for vigorous.
