If you have control over the firewall, you'll have to map an address on the
outside of the firewall to your switch.
example:
If your firewall outside interface is 121.1.5.2, and you have 121.1.5.3 as
an available ip address on that outside subnet, and your switch was at
198.1.1.1, then you'd map 121.1.5.3 to 198.1.1.1 in the firewall.
If you had no available outside ip addresses, then you could map a port on
your firewall's outside ip address to the inside switch. In this example,
maybe you'd map port 55 to the switch.
Your firewall administrator can probably help you out with this. If you are
the firewall administrator, then read up on the configuration of your
firewall on how to do this.
