I'm pretty sure that this box can do this, only way to find out is to give
it a go.   It should be documented.

It is of my opinion that if you have a decent firewall and you are
publishing services such as SMTP, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS or anything tcp based,
then you should always use the proxy function on the firewall.  Depending on
the firewall, it will protect against protocol attacks and more.

ISA is a  solution, but it adds an extra box to the topology, its another
machine to patch, maintain, license, power, air condition etc. etc...

My point is, if you have a good firewall, use the proxies that come with it
and don't bother with ISA.

K

Subject: RE: DMZ ports for Front End Server

I'm running firmware version 5.0.0r4.0. I have to admit some ignorance of
'deep packet inspection', but I would assume that it's looking for malformed
packets that could be an exploit attempt.

Thanks,
Erick
