Hi,
I am new to this group and I have some questions and looking for suggestions.
Our current firewall is running on a BSD system and has issues, I was
planning on implementing shorewall. Here is how our IP network is
-----T1 Link ---Cisco ---- Firewall ----Router -----
T1 link has a dedicated IP address
and has a framerelay link with Cisco
T1 (206.11.72.1) ---- Cisco (206.11.72.2)
and behind the Cisco I have three routable IP networks
207.24.169.0
207.24.79.0
207.24.172.0
I have two options,
Connect the Cisco to the firewall with 4 ethernet interfaces, use
207.24.79.1 /30 for Cisco interface and 207.24.79.2/30 for Shorewall.
The rest of the interfaces for shorewall will 207.24.79.254/24
207.24.169.254
and
207.24.172.254
Is this a good idea or is there better ways to connect and route these
network behind the firewall.
Please advice.
thanks
